An early start this morning, down to Cardiff Bay to begin filming with the crew from the ORF international news programme, Weltjournal.

We're making good progess, although ORF producer Christina Kronaus (pictured right) doesn't think my idea for a new Weltjournal feature called "Amputee Der Woche" will get off the ground.

Oh, and another minor miracle this morning. My bag – lost somewhere between Bologna and Heathrow – has turned up. Obviously the Alitalia baggage staff have tired of my solied Y-fronts and have decided to send them back to whence they came.
