Such a good bloke. Who doesn't like Top Gear? We had a chat about Christmas toys, train sets and his new DVD 'James May's Toy Stories'.

He even offered to give me advice on buying a new car!

It was a busy day yesterday - Alesha Dixon popped in to the show and chatted about her Christmas plans, Strictly stories and that she wanted to work with Dizzee. She stayed around after the show to answer a few listeners phone calls too.

Then, Michael Bublé came in for a chat. I played a new game with him called 'Smash Bublé's Baubles' and he talked to me about the ice hockey team he's bought. He's a really good bloke. And there were loads of Newsbeat ladies hanging around outside the studio too wanting him to sign their calendars. That's not a euphemism.

George Michael's Scary Christmas House...

Good result last night on the X Factor I thought. I am an Olly fan but Joe is the better singer. That 2hr show last night was too long though! 2 HOURS! Apparently, advertisers were paying £200,000 per advert slot. Incredible. Nice to see Sir Paul on there too. Still great isn't he. However, Jedward and Macca should NEVER be on the same stage.

I was worried by George Michael's weird Christmas house though. Anyone else spot that?!

As I often do, I thought I'd put up a load of photos from my phone that might be of interest to you. They might not be, but we'll see.

I was DJing at Hertfordshire Uni on Friday night and this girl got up in front of everyone and started dancing. Brave/drunk:

Also, this is photo that I took when I went to X Factor a few weeks ago. It IS of Joe. Although it is the world's worst photo, it's value has now rocketed!

I love this. It's all about the moment he's brought out on stage and shuffles across screen:

My sister is in New York at the moment and she sent this to me earlier.

New York is the best place to be for Christmas. It's the tree from Home Alone 2 - greatest Christmas film ever, by the way.

It makes me look like a 5 year old.
