Sunny August days in Phuket

The sun has continued all week. Is it really Thursday already? Every day after work has seen glorious blue skies with warm afternoon sunshine. Took the kids for a swim on Tuesday evening, and yesterday we went for a walk at Bang Wad Reservoir, good exercise for the kids, and for slightly overweight dads. Loads of people there last night enjoying the weather. If you want to jog with the locals, that's the place!



Sports News - Middlesborough 2 - Chelsea 1

Good result for the lads. Normally I wouldn't care a hoot about what happens to Middlesborough, but the manager and former captain is Gareth Southgate, who's from the same town as me (Crawley), and his dad was my athletics coach. Gareth used to be in the athletic team, but once he started playing football he never looked back. if only he'd not missed that penalty in the 1996 European championships....
