... leaner, fitter, tanner, sadly not richer. This year's interview series experiment was a success, I think. Generally, it all happened smoothly (apart from last Friday's, which appears to be missing, somewhere, in transit, but which we'll bring you shortly).

Regular posts will continue throughout the day.
