I watched a programme last night that was, of all things, about the number one. It was very fascinating and stuff, what with the history of how the Sumerians came up with this fabulous number, but about all I can recall is that what makes us so great is we can count to whatever number and make up stupid bloody rules such as those of Pythagaros with which to torment small schoolchildren whilst other animals can only count to three or four.

I swear Amy can count to four, but then she's a border collie so she's the Carol Vorderman of animals.

Does anyone know what on earth one does with a butternut squash? I bought one from ace Euro supermarket Lidl on a whim, but now I'm worried as to how I'm going to do anything for this scary monster of a vegetable...thing.
