Orwell that ends well
Are YOU going to send us your diary entry for Saturday 9th August, 2008?
Tomorrow George Orwell's - which he began to keep exactly 70 years ago - will be published as a daily blog. iPM is using it as an excuse to nose into your Saturday.
We'll post tomorrow and you can either add your entry in the comments section, or post on your own blog (or YouTube, Twitter, etc) and add the link. Tagging it 'ipmdiary' is a good idea.
I've had an actor in to voice some of Orwell's words. For inspirational purposes only, I thought I'd give you a sneak preview...
ALSO, hands up, I messed up on the flags on food packets story.
As Sid has pointed out, Saltire is the flag connected to Scotland, is a village in Yorkshire. It sits on the River Aire and is named after Sir Titus Salt. There are worse name combinations, I suppose. Some that might hold the risk of even worse spelling mistakes.
