Cat's in the Cradle

Nicky Campbell ?? The man is an out-and-out workaholic. He's never off either the Radio or the TV. Given the nature of the programmes he presents, he obviously has to do a hell of a lot research as well. It's not as though he's a mere Wogan or somebody simply mouthing words from an autocue.

Today, for example: Breakfast Show on 5Live 6:00 - 9:00 am - reporting on pretty momentous news. One minute being witty and flirting (and showing off frankly) with Ms Derbyshire, the next interviewing pretty high-powered movers and shakers in the current situation in the middle-east.

Last Night - there he was on Watchdog on BBC1 - a show that is pretty much - if not completely - live. This after 3 hours of a live breakfast show. Tonight I turn on 5LIve....and there he is again presenting a 'special' to commemorate the fall of Baghdad or something.

Nicky ! You should be spending at least some quality time with the daughters you're always talking about on the show. Remember what happened to the guy in the Harry Chapin song in the heading !

If you don't know what happens, perhaps you and your girls could get together, do some research and find out - as a family !
