 | | ...is going to be GREAT!
Thanks to Andy Murray for waiting until I got home from Gordon's summer concert last night before blasting into the 4th round of Wimbledon in a nail-biting clock-watching end to a thriller I'll catch his next match but if he progresses, would someone PLEASE text me so I can tune in from the ship?    
 When we get home I'll be counting down the days to the Olympics. It was an honour to witness the Flame's procession through Cleethorpes, and I've been quite moved watching (some of) the Flame carriers in the rest of the United Kingdom. The community spirit which has been displayed has been marvellous, did you know Louth's Mayoress even turned out in a sausage costume (in honour of the great Lincolnshire sausage which has just been turned down for a PGI ) but of course she's being derided by some who said the outfit was offensive because it looked like a giant penis. (Please choose your keywords carefully if googling for a picture, Pailaway and Auntie Lil) . We didn't witness it but Gordon, who is used to hobnobbing with the Great and Good, calls the Mayoral party "the Chain gang", so he  when I told him about the Mayoress' costume.

 | | I'd call the frank prank a success, because she brought worldwide coverage to Lincolnshire on a slow news day. Not sure what that's worth to the Tourism Development Board, but I daresay that kind of publicity would cost a *lot* of money. Well done, Mayor. Suffer the slings and arrows now, reap the benefits later.
