**** Sorry - this never got published - can't get used to these new-fangled computer things ****

Day 8 I think? 13/12/08

Today's song - Theme from Rambo. Played twice by a kids brass band on the harbour (in the rain).

Yesterday was a marked improvement on the previous in that we weren't all knackered. We travelled to the Olympic Park on Mark's request which is a fair old distance, and when we missed the stop on the ferry, it didn't look good. But having got there it was ace - we had a really good tour guide called Carol to ourselves who showed us round the ANZ stadium (2000 games opening ceremony; 1993 World Cup Final). As well as signatures of Beckham and Johnson there was even Luke Wilkshire's (Bristol City and Australia c2006) scribble - my life is complete.
