Dangermouse has agreed to take the job when he gets back off holiday in a few weeks. I'd do it myself, but you know how ungrateful she gets when you try to do something nice for her, like the endless hours of teasing I put in so she could play 'whackamole'.

We could ask Hope - she's a ray of sunshine, after all.
