As someone who has travelled to WFC away games by coach on many occasions, I was sad to hear about the crash near Kilmarnock of Rangers fans on their way to their home game against Partick this afternoon.
Speaking of bed, tonight I will be in yet another one. Dieppe, Dorset, St.Albans, Aylesbury and now Newhaven. Tomorrow all being well I will be back home and crawling into my own one, but five different ones in two weeks doesn't give you time to mold your shape into the mattress.
We'll be sampling four Spanish mattresses in the next eight days. A shame our own is considered a bit bulky for Flybe...

Morning all, back home again and in the two weeks I have been away there has been no rain, so everywhere still looking parched. An interesting time on my ferry yesterday. I was bringing back an industrial sized loping saw with a bright yellow handle, that was too large to lay flat in the car. Security in the port spotted it and wanted to know if it was a hockey stick. Having been told what it was they wanted assurance that it would stay in the car and not be taken on board. Half way across we were told that passengers would have to leave the outside decks as a helicopter would be flying overhead to lower some gendarmes on board. Three were put on board, with an impressive array of guns, and they then wandered around the boat for the next couple of hours. Surely they were not there to arrest a harmless gent with a loping saw!
On arriving in Newhaven ferry port our passports are put through the scanner to see if we should be allowed in, and we are registered as being in the country. On leaving no such check is carried out, and we are therefore still officially in the country. Judging that a lot more people were leaving for France than trying to get into the UK a couple of weeks earlier, I believe that the population of the UK is shrinking rather than trust figures that say it is growing.
