an adieu to the Olympic Games...

***************************************************************************

What a great all-round athlete my brother is! He won the 100m
three years running, the trampoline championships twice on the
bounce and the lightweight sculls four years in a row.
Didn't quite win the diving, but hey, he made quite a splash...

Farewell, Rio...

"June 18, 1815," she said, "Battle of Waterloo". That's the last time I ask an
historian for a date, however attractive I find her. Don't they ever switch off?...

Don't complain if your doctor can't speak English. I'm grateful mine
hardly speaks a word. He'll never be able to pronounce me dead - well, not
so you'd understand him, anyway...
