Oops, I forgot there was Formula E from New York this weekend... That's the downside of "too much to do" And I inadvertantly ran across the result on FB...

Anyways, will watch it on catch up right now.

I reckon avoiding the result to postpone the "What happened?" is overrated. "How did it happen?" is just as good, if different.

A day of music and gigs is over and I'm now home listening to one of the CDs I bought.

I think I've figured out what is wrong with watching England play in white and orange (it's actually more of a red than an orange but it looks orange on my TV).

You feel its quackers?

Well.. I go to work and all the (not so nice!) excitement breaks out.
Chap opposite and his girlfriend + a child of about 8 years old have too many dogs for a small gardened 2 bed house. They breed them, too. At about 18:00, one big dog, a mastiff of some sort attacked him in the garden. Kid (unhurt) is, obviously, distressed and screaming which brings the neighbours out who try to get through the fence to help.
Short while later, plod, Ambo and RSPCA turn up to sort the mess out!! Chap is off to hospital, dog is put in a caged van, presumably to be put down. Other dogs, I think have been taken away, too,until investigations have been concluded..

I'm actually a bit knackered as I walked for miles around the venues and was on my feet most of the time. I don't have the stamina I had pre-accident.

Blimey! It's midnight!

@tyred - I think you know the answer

And if he's causing an obstruction with the cable I'd advise you to unplug it for safety reasons

Those who've coned the path off might end up hitting it. Making it a safety hazard.

Well, that was one bizarre race...

And an excellent demonstration of how a GOOD race director can keep atop a pretty crazy situation.

Now watching some athletics.

Last minute decision to head to Silverstone for the VSCC meeting on Saturday - as in at 10:15 I was putting washing out to dry with no plan for the rest of the day, at 10:45 I was heading out the door with a litre of squash, a flask of coffee and a downloaded ticket brought 10 minutes previously. Made it with 10 minutes to spare before the first race of the day.

Very hot & sunny, thankfully the P20 did its job, and an afternoon of good racing with the added bonus of 2 and a bit hours of air conditioned coolness on the drive each way.

There is a very loud fly in here.

Nunnight one and all xxx

I'm up... due to a momentary power outage that turned my tele on, set alarms going nearby, but not enough to dump the time setting on the microwave.
