    Dismal here. Cold and wet.

    Went out on slug patrol last night and population was well down (due to previous nice weather I guess), though did find a couple of monsters, but this damp weather will be sure to boost the population.

    Had a peek a women's handball last night. That's a fast and aggressive game.

    Today seems like a day for watching telly, all day. Beach volleyball scheduled for 9am. Rowing starts at 9.30. Swimming at 10. Horses at 10.30. Should be something to watch.

    Weather looks bad in London too, am wondering what's going to happen to the Beach Volleyball.

    Gary what did you do with your monster slugs?

    Women's Team gymnastics final this afternoon. I think they're currently in 5th position, but there's always the chance of an upset amongst the leaders.

    I put all the slugs in their proper place, where they can make themselves useful - on the compost heap. That's what slugs and snails do - they break down plant material, so other animals can make use of it.

    They have to take their chances, I'm afraid. They might get eaten by something, but that's up to them. The smarter ones might hide fast.

    It's horrible here - misty, drizzly and damp.  image I have plenty of cake in . Coffee cake and egg custards . image I left my carnivorous plants out last night by mistake , thankfully they haven't been attacked by anything .

    Gary I might let a few off then and add them to the compost.

    I think I'll be sitting out in the sun this afternoonimage so I'll catch the hi lights of the gymnastics later after eating my tea out on the patio

    Jean  thats awful Im watching sky news but yes I see theyve got the culprit

    Good ( and I've spelt his name wrong - it should be Daley of course ).

    That young man has done phenomenonly well considering the trauma he's been through. I have the greatest respect for him.

    Hope the '' troll '' gets the book thrown at him.

    That was meant to be  '' or her '' as well . I see the little runt shares my name - what an insult.
