I
don’t consider myself to be much of a handyman but I managed to make a pretty
decent guider (go-cart) for Colin Hanlon. The bogie will give a lot of us some
fun as we push each other around the four blocks at full speed or fly down the
hill on Oxgangs Place.
Colin and Alan Hanlon
In
the afternoon I did my papers up at the City Hospital; once I sold them all I
happily wandered home to watch the European Athletics Championships which I've
been hooked on the past few nights.
Although it's not my favourite event
it was great to see Barbara Inkpen win a silver medal in the high jump for us.
It must be great to be an athletics hero on the telly - they just live
different lives to the rest of us; we might think we're pretty good at running
'n jumping but they're all just different class; still we can always dream.
I
watched the first episode of ‘The First Churchills’ - actually I watched it
because I thought it looked quite interesting. I could have watched ‘The Two
Ronnies’ on BBC 2. It was okay and I wasn’t disappointed; let's see how it pans
out. I
enjoyed some pie 'n chips from Risi’s. I seem to have been eating more
healthily recently with fewer chips in my diet most probably because it’s the
school holidays and I’m away from Boroughmuir.
