Greg and I headed off to the O2 stadium to watch the bronze medal basketball match between Russia and Argentina.

A troupe of skippers provided the half time entertainment with some amazing acrobatics.

Russia celebrate their 81-77 bronze medal win after a thrilling game.

A view from the keep at Porchester Castle, another fine example of Roman/Saxon/Norman history spanning nearly 2000 years.

After a farewell lunch with John and Audrey Duncan we promised not to wait another 38 years before catching up again.

On a beautiful sunny day we joined thousands of people in Hyde Park to watch the Men's Open Water Swim.

Swimming up and down the duck poo infested waters of the Serpentine is certainly not my idea of fun. Unfortunately only one of the swimmers could earn a gold medal.

Enjoying a champage at intermission of "Jersey Boys". It was a fabulous show and we look forward to seeing the Brisbane production.
