Only ITV could manage this, they have been crap at football coverage my entire life.

Oops! How NOT to plan an art exhibition
This made me chortle.
Painter finds fakes at his art show
SH Raza, an Indian artist has discovered that an exhibition of his work he was due to open is actually full of fakes. That really is very poor.
A leading Indian artist has said he was “stupefied and outraged” to find that many of his paintings at a show he was inaugurating were fakes.
SH Raza was inaugurating the exhibition at an art gallery in Delhi.
The Dhoomimal Art Gallery closed its show as soon as Mr Raza pointed out the fakes but said it had sourced them from the painter’s family.
There is a flourishing market for fakes of most leading painters in India, art gallery owners and experts say.
That really is pretty poor planning by the gallery.
Nerdy bit of kit of the day
For those of us who use Twitter in earnest it’s worth taking a look at BrightKit…it allows you to fully manage your twitter account, in-built Tiny URLs, get click reports, schedule Tweets for later on and keep multiple accounts.
Loving it.
Glad I have some good news as I spent yesterday afternoon lurching from computer crash to computer crash…after a raft of reinstalls and network tinkering I think I traced it a poorly FireFox….so now I’ve got it un-installed and totally stripped down and an currently hoping it’s not just going to freeze on me again (again).
Job of the day : Lego sculptor
How good is this guy. He’s basically a Lego artist…and apparently he charges shedloads for his services.
The 35-year-old New Yorker makes a six-figure living as a Lego artist, creating large-scale works of art using tens of thousands of the plastic pieces. Among his recent projects are a 10-foot-tall replica of the new Trump Tower being constructed in Dubai for Donald Trump, and a four-foot-tall bumblebee commissioned by Fall Out Boy bass guitarist Pete Wentz as a gift for his new bride, pop star Ashlee Simpson. He says he receives hundreds of commission inquiries every month.
How much fun must that be.
