Well MPs are back, we’ve got the first PMQs tomorrow, and everything is building up to conference season.

The Cafe is the open thread that we run most nights. The rest it up to you.

Marf’s spoof of the Edward Hopper classic Nighthawks Café is available in limited edition print and signed by Marf for £60. If you are interested contact her here.

Thanks for all the good wishes from PBers following my accident last week. I am getting better but I still find it difficult spending long periods in front of the computer.
