• The Faster Payments Service goes live today. I've been working with some aspects of this for a while - I'm expecting an interesting week...

• Sydney Pollack has died. As mentioned, Elaine and I went to see Made of Honour on Sunday night, which features him as the hero's father. I know he had been fighting cancer for a while but still, you don't really expect to see people onscreen in a new film, then read their obituary just two days later...

Right. Off to work now.
