Those pesky British paralympians have broken 3 world records at the vélodrome. Giglia, Storey and Bate. There may be golds in store. (Coverage from 8:30pm on Channel 4)

Anyway, I'm having a nice lunch at the moment. I'm starting with Belgian boar pate, followed by cote de boeuf, washed down with a rather nice house red.

I've done all the usual sights, museums, etc. Any suggestions for anything interesting or unusual to do/see in Paris?

Bonne chance de lire cela. J'espère que ça vous plait. Il n'y a rien comme un bon roman policier, Wol, ma cher.

I am currently reading "Pourquoi pas Evans?" by Agatha Christie.

Excellent book, you clearly have very good taste.

One of my favourites - Wasn't the English version, Why Didn't They Ask Evans?

Exactement!

Someone's going to have to explain the reference to me, I'm afraid.

Currently sat in my hotel room, on my "summer" holiday to Kefalonia.......Been here for 3 days so far and it's rained solidly for 2 of them, endured the worst thunderstorms I've ever experienced during the night. There is another 1 rumbling away at the moment and they are forecast to last for the next 5 days. Well at least I'm not at work!



Reports of roads being washed away and the capital (Argostoli) is under water.

Update, actually sat by the pool for 2 hours in sun this afternoon......and then we had an earthquake! Only 3.8 magnitude but enough to shake the hotel about
