Morning.

Coffee and my last bowl of Crunchy Nut Chocolate clusters before the packet is finished. Next up; Choco Orange Shreddies.

Not the slightest bit interested in any of the Olympics. I appreciate it's a big deal for a lot of people in this country but I'm afraid I'm not one of them.

If there is a sport that I want to see and I know when it is on, I will probably watch it. I'm not going to go out of my way to watch any of the Olympics though. I find a lot of the Olympic sports to be dull and uninteresting.

I was, then I got cynical about it all, now it's starting to build again. I'm mildly frustrated that I haven't been able to get more tickets but I'll settle for seeing the boxing and archery next week.

I'm not going anywhere near London for the next few months either..

We're based pretty close to London and I was hoping to head over to Bowles in Kent on Sunday (make the most of the sunshine) but I'm not sure whether it's a good idea to brave the QE-II bridge or not yet. Not too keen on the idea of sitting in traffic all day but we'll see.

As far as the Olympics goes, I wouldn't mind going to watch some of the Tiquando but that just depends on whether I get around to organising if before the Olympics is over.

I'm not really feeling the Olympic fever that some people seem to have. My kids got to hold an olympic torch and have a picture from school of them holding it. We had an Olympic event at the school which I went down to see, but I never bothered with tickets for events and I'm not going anywhere near London for the next few months either.

I probably won't even end up watching half the events on TV.

Lol that made me laugh a lot more than it should have :-P

I'm down London Saturday to Wednesday to see the field hockey. Watching GBR take on Argentina followed by Germany vs Belgium. At least I can cross 'going to an Olympics' off my list then.

Three in a row.


Chainbreaker!



Bit later this morning as I took the car in for a service. More £.

Hopefully all goes well and I can pick it up this afternoon.



I'm sure they'll make up problems for you to pay to fix :D

My front tyres are worn out so they are going to need replacing in a a few months £££
