Lazy

The Gorse Fox had to get Cousteau-cub to the railway station early this morning. She was off to meet up with some friends from Phi Phi for a couple of days. The weather was grey and damp with a penetrating drizzle covering the coast.

By late morning the weather had changed and we were bathed in glorious sunshine but a certain laziness had set in. We watched the closing ceremony of the Beijing Olympics, which was spectacular, China have certainly stage managed a brilliant games. It was good to see so many World and Olympic records broken - yet so few drug scandals (6 the GF had heard).

GF, though initially uninterested, was delighted with the Team GB performance - particularly as they beat the Aussies.

The handover of the flag to Boris went smoothly and the segment with the London Bus amused the Gorse Fox as the dancers waiting by the bus stop hurled their newspapers away to celebrate the British habit of littering. It won't come as a surprise that the highlight for the Gorse Fox was Jimmy Page and Leona Lewis's set. GF wonders if she will make guest appearances on the LZ's next tour - if it ever happens.
