We've had a fine holiday week at home, mostly because the sun has shone - proper hot sun with top temperatures, the lot. So it's been Kew Gardens, the seaside, sausage barbecuing at the back, that sort of thing. We also saw the Olympic torch relay through Richmond which, hulking great sponsor lorry crassness aside, was strangely moving.

Only nagging doubt in my mind is to me Danny Boyle=low budget, not spectacle. Hope he proves me wrong.
ReplyDeleteMe too. On the other hand we invented amateurism
ReplyDeleteoh littlehampton. top class
ReplyDeleteThe East Beach, bit less crowded. Fish and chips from the cafe, wind break up with a brolly on top to shade us from the sun, who'd have thought, and a tide so low in arrival the sand seemed to go on forever (and had a proper seaweedy smell)
ReplyDeleteThere was a exclusive clip on this morning's news using Mud's Tiger Feet. Not sure if I like the sound of that.
