Mon The Fratellis! Haven’t found Chaz White yet…..

From the Race Site: “A crew of Watford based taxi drivers who were considered rank outsiders when they entered the race are now contenders for their class prize in the 2008 Round Britain Race. The performance of skipper Barry Deakin on the opening leg between Portsmouth and Plymouth on Saturday confounded the pundits but this was no fluke. After having to transport their boat overland to Milford Haven when high seas forced the second leg to be abandoned, they repeated the performance on Monday by using navigational tactics. Despite choosing the longer course off the Irish coast between Milford Haven and Bangor NI in an attempt to seek shelter from a strong South Westerly wind, it was a gamble that paid off and they hit the finish in tenth place overall to collect first prize in the RB2 class. ” – Go Hard Boys!

What do you do in the Summer? Is an often asked phrase out here… Follow the Watford La Tania connection (plus Phil of Snowbound Transfers is driving the support vehicle) race around the UK in their boat “The Bandit”. Start should be on TV tomorrow, also see The Bandit Website and the race website at www.roundbritainrace.co.uk. Good Luck Lads!!!

Keith Allen (Lillys Dad of Vindaloo and Sheriff of Nottingham fame) leads his band Grow Up at the Lynton Music Festival on Saturday. Great mix of bands, drinks, food and atmosphere. And free to get in….

Just near the top of the bubble, still more higher up of course…

Not much – The cows are back in town,  weather is rainy like it has been for 3 weeks, a worker fell off the roof at Saboia, the Chrome bar is open and Katie’s (ex-Bubble Bar) new restaurant in 1650 is open.
