I did this twice, after the first time I was still having the issue but when...

Events this coming weekend (20th - 22nd July) Guess what fellow DDK’s, this weekend it is going to rain.

Did all the price comparison sites ( good article on moneysavingexpert.com on which ones to try). Then called elephant and told them that I could get cheaper elsewhere, they said that th...

Took NickT's advice and wore shorts the whole weekend. On Saturday visited the local English Heritage stately home and had ice cream in the rain. Today, watched the Olympic torch pass by (not in the rain, but journey to and from was). Then went swimming (outside, in the rain) and had more ice cream ...

So Bradley now in yellow, followed by Cadel. More climbs tomorrow, we'll see if Wiggins can keep it up.

Another year on, another Classic Le Mans not visited. Whilst those with working cars are on their little jolly (jealous? Moi? Too right) what is everyone else up to this weekend? As the forecast is rain (for the rest of our lives), my weekend will probably involve keeping the kids entertained in doo...

No matter, I’m sure someone will remind me……… It’s the British F1 GP on Sunday, plus for those interested in aeroplanes, the Royal Air Tatt...
