Just watched the diving.
What a shame. What a loss.

Talking bout all those muscular young men in tiny briefs I will never meet of course.

Family Fun Day at the Vale Park on Wednesday.
No rain predicted. Huzzah!
Last time I was there was for the Vale Schools Olympic Event, in monsoon conditions. We were the only school that brought gazebos (?!) but even then our kinder had to sit on plastic bags as the ground sheets looked like WWI battlefields within 10 minutes.

And the worms! The worms!
I'm not especially squeamish. Well, okay I am but I hide it well. I rescue worms when they are drowning or crisping. But every cm of ground was coated in them. The rain, the pounding of feet and the music brought them all up to the surface. You could not tread but you trod on worms. I just had to avert my gaze and carry on.

So yes. Am looking forward to a reletively worm free 1st August.
Have hijacked Tiger's family.
Outdoors time for me - yay!

ETA - cleaned all the inside windows today. That will do for exercise. Almost as good as falling off a horse.
