Congratulations to Britain's Andy Murray for winning the Olympic Gold Singles Tennis. Commiserations to Scotland's Andy Murray for losing the Mixed Doubles Final Tennis.....

Drove to Alcaucin today to visit relatives over from the UK. He's my nephew, and owns a really good freehouse pub/restaurant in West Sussex, staying here with his Mum in her lovely villa for a welcome break. They have three bonny daughters, who laid on a puppet show for us all. Good fun.

The drive was not enjoyable though.Why do Spanish drivers always hog the centre lane? Why do they seldom indicate before turning? and when they do, they're turning already!! Don't they teach them to move into the appropriate lane, and indicate well in advance, in Spain? Also, 'undertaking' is illegal in Spain, doesn't seem to stop them though.......and I don't mean Funeral Directors by 'undertaking' either!!!

Must get stuck into "The Saturday Pledge" tomorrow. I always feel kind of guilty if I don't write at least a little every day.

How do you know when you've at an Ipswich wedding? Everyone is sitting on the same side of the church.

A man is sitting in the shade in his garden drinking an ice cold beer. Meanwhile his wife is puffing and sweating as she pushes the lawnmower up and down the large lawn. Their next door neighbour looks over the fence, sees what's happening and shouts to the man, "How can you sit there boozing while your poor little wife is struggling to cut the grass. You ought to be bloody well hung!" The man took a swig of his beer and replied, "I am. That's why she's doing the grass"
