  2. The BBC are absolutely flogging this thing to death here, much like they do with Wimbledon. It's probably as much to do with the fact that those two are just about the only sporting events left to terrestrial TV. I always think of the Olympics (like Wimbledon) as sport for people who don't like watching sport. I totally agree about the waste of money - I groaned when London won the bid for 2012. I really cannot see how any good can come of it - it's already cost the taxpayer billions. It's purely an exercise in vanity, thanks in no small part to Lord Sebastian Coe, IMVHO of course. So no, I won't be watching any of it.

  20. ... and the rest of Stockport, I expect This Davenport has jazz associations, as well as the Iowa one. I saw Shorty Rogers at the Davenport Theater in the mid-eighties leading NYJO (British National Youth Jazz Orchestra). He wrote a marvelous composition for them called "Davenport" which has probably never been recorded. I remember the Davenport very well Bill. Never went to a jazz show, though I do remember a children's show in the very early eighties (my dad was the musical director) and Steve Coogan's "Bag Of Shite" show in about 1993. I only live round the corner from the site. They sold it to Stockport Grammar school and Kwik Fit, if you didn't know. It would be nice to hear that tune.

  22. Rain forecast, but none yet, while yesterday wasn't nearly as bad as forecast. Here's hoping - playing cricket this afternoon.
