A working breakfast

I'm just back from a 'recession-busting' breakfast at Downing Street. All pretty high-powered: just me, the Prime Minister Gordon Brown and President Barack Obama.

I know there's pressure on us all but I feel it went very well.

I could have done with the bacon being a little crispier, but the mushrooms were a delight, the eggs sunny side up, and the tomatoes beautifully grilled - with just the right amount of pepper.

I can't remember what we discussed. To be honest, our mouths were pretty full most of the time, and Gordon loves his toast and jam! But I do remember the coffee was both hot and strong, which is not always the case at these things.

So green shoots of hope, in a way.

Must be April Fool. Gordon always has his bacon crispy. Especially bank bacon ...
