The summer Olympics of 2008 are nearly over, I doubt we shall see their like again until the next time they go to China and who knows what the People's Republic will look like by then. These have been britain's most successful games since 1908 which shows that if you have a good model, good coaches and some hard work and throw a shed load of money then you will succeed so hats off to sailing, rowing, swimming and cycling with a cheer for boxing, taikwando and canoing but Athletics you need to take a long hard look at yourself. The Tri Nations Rugby is gearing up today Australia won in South Africa for the first time since 2000. The World Champions need to take a long hard look at themselves. I am still not so sure about Australia and think they had the benefit of the ref.



Coming up on September 1st my wife starts a new teaching job and I know she will look forward to it. As for me that day I'm off to the dentist for an extraction at 2.15 actually, the old jokes being the best.



Speak to you all soon
