Assorted Crawfs are heading West at the weekend for the warmth of Florida where we have our timeshare haha.

Of course the Orlando theme-park experience is naff and plastic. On the other hand, it’s top-class naff and plastic where everything works and is geared towards separating you from your money with a broad smile.

So if I can tear myself away from the pool and tennis court in the next three weeks, I may write something here. Then again, maybe I won’t.

For now you’ll just have to make do with three pieces.

First, a top-class new insider piece from the Guardian about the sudden arrival in the UK of the Libyan FM – lots of grainy intelligence and other detail, clearly based on some clever but sensitive briefing. Good job all round.

Then there’s this one by Boris Johnson on last weekend’s demonstrations in London against the non-cuts.

Somehow everyone remembers to this day Denis Healey’s rude remark about Sir Geoffrey Howe ("being savaged by a dead sheep"). Well, Ed Miliband is never going to recover from this startlingly fine imagery from BJ:

"No cuts! No cuts!" they chant. At this, the honest version of Ed Miliband raises his hand in caution. "I didn’t say no cuts, friends. We think we could maintain market confidence and go ahead with only 80 per cent of the cuts.

Think of that. We – the party of Nelson Mandela, the suffragettes and the Tolpuddle martyrs – we would only institute four fifths of the evil Tory cuts!" 

… But by this point the crowd is no longer listening. With a horrible gurgling cry they have flooded the stage and the last we see of Miliband is the insect-like flapping of his limbs as he is borne aloft and away in the general direction of the Serpentine.

And a special if rather bleak treat to finish, from who else but …

Islam will readily acknowledge our technological superiority: If you want to operate a no-fly zone over Benghazi or send an unmanned drone into Waziristan, we have the capability and they don’t.

The difference is that Islam thinks our technological superiority doesn’t matter – because we’re unmanned drones in a more basic sense: we believe in nothing except the most transitory and dreary self-gratification, an endless adolescence that begins with a push-up bra at eight and continues through free government condoms for 30-year olds.

Not only do the surging Muslim populations in European cities have no wish to "assimilate" with such a culture, they do not believe they will have to – for they have bet that such a society cannot survive.

I’ll let you know how I get on in decadent Disney World. The Men in Black ride at Universal is our favourite.

Zap. Zap. Kappoweee.
