Had a sneaky Friday morning ...
.... 18 holes this morning on the glorious track that is Sunningdale Golf Club. The stuff of dreams.
Tash and I were separated for the first time in a long time, with us ending up playing against each other - something we don't usually like to do.
We were playing with a guy they call The Colonel. Ex army, he left to join the music business and in 1979 happened to sign a little combo' by the name of U2. Strangely enough hasn't looked back ever since.
He told us the story of the night he went to see them and thought "Aye, what do we have here then ?"
He's off tonight to see them at Wembley.
Meantime back at base, Tash, defeated alas and pretty convincingly too (5 and 4 if you must know) and not to mention smarting, has picked up Junior from her Ma's and is immersing herself once again in the therapy that is motherhood.
Anniversary tomorrow, I still have no idea what she has planned - all I know is that I have to be on parade by 9 am. In the morning.
Might produce first ever Saturday Blog to let you guys in on whatever it's going to be.
Have a blast of weekend. Off now to the first meeting for next years Children In Need Drive time Dine and Disco Weekend.
Love and peace, peace and love.

ARF - can you please, please, please play 'These Words' by Natasha Bedingfield? It does mention the words 'I love you, I love you, I love you' which, since it's your anniversary tomorrow, might be appropriate?! Alright, perhaps a tad too tenuous but pleeeeeeeees

Arternoon all - Wotcha newbies and a first up Amy too !!
Said on previous blog but hope you have a great anniversary Christoph. Saturday blog would be good so we know what the surprise is.
For those who want to know, I had a text from Deev at 1.30 -(just before all hell broke loose here) to say she was in Docklands supping a beer!!!
Just after that one of my clients appeared at the door - let in by the decorators - dog went ballistic for some reason and wouldn't leave him alone! Must have smelled nice or somekink! Then the police - nosey neighbour wanted one of the deccys car moved - stoopid cow - she just likes moaning - nothing better to do and nowhere near her place!!! Off to town to go to bank and the world and his wife were trying to park - very badly!!! Traffic everywhere. (I managed - gloat gloat).
Now back in office with me tea and a ciggy!!! Calm !!!

Well, I've snook away early, as it was unbearable hot in the office, and managed to stop for supplies of wine, but have forgotten the milk - oops! Still there's enough for his coffee in the morning, so should be OK, and I need to go out in the morning to take Finlay for his haircut.
I've also managed to scare the living daylights out of myself with the house alarm - assumed Mr JG hadn't set it when it didn't beep when I opened the front door, wandered into the kitchen, upstairs, back into the kitchen, into the lounge, booted this up, stood up, and off it went!!

I love the street performers at the fringe too! Will see if I can get to a show or two as well. It doesn't help this year that Princes St is completely dug up for the tram works, so if you're walking around you're fenced in on one side of the street. Then you have to dodge all the tourists who stop in the middle of the street to take photos of the castle!

Sharpening File for Pruning Saws
Not Yet Rated
Great multi use hatchet.I love this hatchet.ivuse it for several things. Good for kindling, fatwood and even general pounding/driving.
Feels nice in c the handI held one of these at my local stihl dealer the other day it was well balanced sharp looking and over ALL seems like a great product
Excellent Tool!It does what it was intended to do. I simply bought it because it was made by Stihl.

Best Axe Ever!I bought this axe because my local dealer didn't have the Pro Splitting Axe in stock. Best axe I have ever owned. No other is even close. Splits smaller logs easily. The locking mechanism is impressive and you never feel the head move. The handle guide is study and large enough to protect from over strikes. I usually have buyers remorse but not on this axe. One of the best purchases I have ever made. I bought the Pro Splitting axe also and love it also.
Awesome all around Axe.......After several months of using this Axe I'm am thoroughly impressed. I use it when Felling trees to drive wedges and it's great for limbing. It's always by my side while working in trees. The protection sleeve makes me worry less about an over strike and the weight is great.
High quality axe!I just finished my itnitial use of the Forestry Axe. I used it to assist my power splitter in finishing off pieces which don't completly split during the normal cycling of the hydraulic splitter. The balance and ease of use are great. I also used it to split some pieces and it is very effective although I didn't purchase it for use as a splitting maul. I plan to take it to the woods for removing small limbs and branches and to set plastic wedges. The shorter overall length (27") is very nice for ... read more striking accuracy and seems to make it very efficient. While not a cheap tool, it is built to last and is very well made. The steel sleeve is a very nice feature for those of us who might tend to overstrike once in a while.

AwesomeHave been heating with wood for 20 years. It was a real debate to spend the money on this maul....until I used it, definitely worth the money. Using hardware store mauls the handles lasted about 2 cords of wood, this handle wont break. This maul hits and splits like a much heavier tool, and goes through knots etc. other mauls wont
This is a wood smashing beast!Huge face for driving my wedges. Awesome sleeve for over strikes. Excellent head attachment. Makes me feel like Thor when I'm using it. Not for wimps. Super satisfying feel when using compared to all the other mauls I have ever used. Hook on end of ax face is super handy. An instant favorite tool of mine. Just get it and swing it like you mean it. You'll be glad you did.
Don't be scared of price, well worth it.From the moment you pick this maul up it becomes apparent this is a well crafted tool. I am currently splitting 18 inch wide dry ash rounds. With an old tire around them these large rounds are reduced to small pieces in no time. After splitting firewood for the past 25+ years I can easily say this is one of the best tools I have used. Excellent product.

The Envy of the CampgroundI am a volunteer host at a State Park in Vermont. As such I cannot use my chainsaws, or my 4 wheeler. I came upon a fairly good sized pile of bucked logs, and not being able to use my spliter either had a challenge on my hands. The challenge was offically eliminated last night when I took the first swing with this axe. It is by far the best axe that this former Boy Scout has ever swung. Maybe I won't miss my chainsaws all that much afterall.
The ultimate splitting toolI have finally found the ultimate ax for splitting hardwood. In over than 50 years splitting firewood this is IT. Heavy enough to split large cuts, but well balanced to conserve effort. The head penetrates well without sticking, therefore, reducing number of strikes needed to complete split. No vibration noticed, just a joy to use.
KaPOW!I had to re-learn how to split wood with this axe. Im so used to dropping a heavy swing and this monster just plows through Pinion and Ash like they aren't even there. even splitting unseasoned rounds is a breeze. best axe I have ever used.

Excellent design and functionality.I feel certain that this fine product will provide many years of dependable service. It is a joy to use. You just can't go wrong with this saw.
Great PrunerSharp, light, easy to use, totally recommend this pruner if you have palm trees.
Perfect hand saw for trimming limbs.I've had my PS 60 Pruning Saw for the last five years and it is still as sharp as when I bought it! It has a very comfortable hand grip and seems to be just at the right angle to make cutting almost effortless. The saw carrier is well made and easy to wear on your belt. If you don't want to get the chainsaw out to cut small branches, get yourself one of these,it's a real time saver.

Very nice.Great leverage and action. Light and strong. We have had 3 pairs. Sort of difficult to buy as local dealers don't all carry the hand tools.
PP 70This hand pruner is the best I have ever used, let alone held! The locking feature is easy to unlock but is very secure when not in use. The price may scare some homeowners/landscapers away, but the quality of the blades are amazing and can be removed to be sharpened, unlike many professional hand pruners out there. Amazing hand pruner for all jobs, from cutting flowers to trimming small branches! I do recommend the hand pruner leather sheath for easy transport!
Best hand pruner I've used for pruning apple treesI have a 100 tree apple orchard that I manage. Annual pruning takes a sizeable amount of time. My old Stanley pruners caused hand pain and finger fatigue. The Felco pruners that I tried kept slipping out of my hand as they seemed to be end-heavy. Stihl's PP70 pruners are the best by far. No fatigue or hand pain after hours of pruning. Better still, they seem to be an extension of the hand and are easily maneuvered around and between branches when pruning. I oil the blade and the pivot point ... read more after each day of pruning.. A touch up sharpening with the diamond stone is needed once or twice during the season. The price is a tad high but you get what you pay for. I've purchased a second set to have as a spare. On the down side, I've busted the spring twice due to fatigue, but Stihl has replaced it both times without question under their lifetime warranty.

England must prove they can be ruthless... just like the Australians (and they'll have to avoid being described as the C-word)
We may be about to learn something new about this England team. From Thursday onwards in Manchester, we may be about to learn whether they can add ruthlessness to the list of abstract nouns that have so far defined their series – principally, patience at Trent Bridge and power at Lord's.
Not since 1928-29 have England won the first three Tests of an Ashes series – a feat which Australia, on the other hand, have achieved three times in the last decade-and-a-bit alone.
The difference can partly be ascribed to quality: in 2001, 2002-03 and 2006-07, the Australians possessed one of the great teams of all time. But there is a stereotype to overcome here, too. As Andrew Strauss himself admitted at the end of his final Test as captain, England prefer to hunt than be hunted. Being startled creatures in the headlights has never come easily.
Jumping for joy: England celebrate their first Test victory at Trent Bridge
More from Lawrence Booth for the Daily Mail...

- Steve Smith may have struggled in swinging conditions, but he showed he's still a class act in the absence of sideways movement 20/08/15
Manchester's weather permitting, they may never get a better chance both to take another step on the path towards the history of a 5-0 whitewash and to demoralise the Australians yet further before Ashes 2013 2.0 starts at Brisbane in November.
And yet part of the worry resides in that last paragraph. Talk of 5-0 – with three games still to go, for heaven's sake – is so rife amid excitable onlookers that you wonder about the threat of the C-word. And, by their own admission, England have fallen victim to complacency before – most notably when they went to the UAE 18 months ago and lost 3-0 to Pakistan.
The possibility of a whitewash has begun to creep out of the side of players' mouths as well. It would be disingenuous of a journalist to grumble about this, because the job is easier when the headlines write themselves. But talk of creating history is generally best left to after it has been created.
Again, there is precedent. Before England went to the UAE, there had been chat about leaving a legacy. Now, they are on the brink of a third straight Ashes win, one of them by the skin of their teeth. Yet not so long ago Australia won eight in a row. The decent thing would be for any English braying to wait.
Perhaps, though, you can hardly blame them for harbouring a sense of quiet confidence. Alastair Cook and Jonathan Trott – makers of 1,211 runs during the last Ashes series at a combined average of 110 – have been unusually quiet so far, even taking into account their mutual history of struggles at Trent Bridge.
And in Nottingham, England's attack was worryingly reliant on James Anderson. The feeling remains that, if Cook's men get it together and overcome the need for a century from Ian Bell, things could grow even messier for Australia.
The key for England is not to feel squeamish about this. And what selector James Whitaker saw at Hove over the weekend will not have translated into messages of doom to the England dressing-room.
In essence, Australia are making it up as they go along – as they have been ever since they sacked Mickey Arthur with two weeks to go before the first Test. The rest has been about botching, the traditionally English pastime of patching and repairing that has been given a twist by the Australians, who have patched rather more than they have repaired.
The constant restructuring of the batting line-up has typified the tendency. Apart from the openers, no one in the top six has been given a defined role – not even Michael Clarke, who seems torn between proving he's not scared of No 4 and taking refuge in his natural home at No 5.
And at Hove, they made the curious decision not to give Shane Watson and Chris Rogers another chance to cement an opening partnership that has had its moments – notably while they were adding 84 in the second innings at Trent Bridge – but at Lord's descended into one big lbw fiasco.
Lording it: England are delighted after winning the second Test - now they can show they're ruthless by winning the three remaining matches
For more cricket-related snippets, feel free to go to twitter.com/the_topspin
While his team-mates were conceding a two-run first-innings deficit to Sussex at Hove, Watson stayed in London to work on his tendency to plant and play fatally around his first foot. There are two ways of interpreting this, and Watson seems forever to attract the less favourable one.
Regardless of which Australians are picked for Old Trafford, it's hard to escape the feeling that they have not morphed into some approximation of England teams of old: the longer a player stays out of the team, the better he gets. Just ask David Warner.
With the narrative of a close series apparently having disappeared on the final afternoon at Trent Bridge, England fans can claim that all that remains is for them to create history and match Australia's 5-0 Ashes wins in 1920-21 and 2006-07.
And they shouldn't need the fillip of rewriting the record books to motivate them. Because aspiring to ruthlessness will do the job by itself. This series has not lost all its interest just yet.
Looking good now: David Warner (left) has become a better player in his absence
An unlikely love story
For those of you labouring under the delusion that N Srinivasan was forced to step down as president of the BCCI because his Chennai Super Kings franchise were at the heart of the IPL's latest loss of credibility, we have some good news! Srini has claimed that the real cause of his demise was because people were jealous… of the fact that he had MS Dhoni.
As news of this unlikely bromance took the cricket world by storm, Srini told a group of students at the Alagappa College of Technology: 'Why do you think people are jealous of CSK? It is because of Dhoni. There was a savage attack on me because I have Dhoni.'
Jealousy? According to N Srinivasan, Chennai Super Kings have been attacked because they have India captain MS Dhoni (centre)
Sticking to his defence of a captain who has proved adept at winning limited-overs trophies but presided over a disastrous sequence of 10 defeats in 16 Tests before the 4-0 duffing-up of Australia in March, Srini hailed 'an intelligent cricketer and a simple man'. The question on everyone's lips is: is the feeling mutual?
Turning the other cheek
To judge by comments on talkboards, it seems some believe the media are deliberately ramping up David Warner's spat with Thami Tsolekile in Pretoria last week. Possibly. But if you were on your last warning, and had just given an interview admitting that the Joe Root/Walkabout incident was a 'kick up the backside', wouldn't you do everything in your power to stay out of the headlines?
And away we go…
Last week this column suggested that Cricket South Africa's appointment as chief executive of Haroon Lorgat, nemesis of the BCCI, was either brave or foolish. Now come reports that the BCCI are considering shortening India's tour to South Africa later this year by way of retaliation for CSA daring to appoint the chief exec of their choice; and they could also end CSA's stake in the money-spinning Champions League. Like we said: brave – or foolish.

Oh, they do have a low tolerance of people who do not speak their native language, so Rosetta Stone is perfect…I love the fresh food and some of the best wine in the world.
France has always been a more liberal and fair place for African-Americans and I do mean just African-Americans, others do no fair so well. Their has always been an respect for our music, dance etc….Big jazz lovers. I love the south of France the best…although I admit their clothes sizing is different, I wear a size 6 American, I wear a size 8 European (ouch). And it is good to get away from the limitations of some African-Americans have set for themselves….
Anything that isn't Ebonics is a pleasant experience.
I recently met 6 Black people from France that were on vacation in the US, and they were all speaking French. What a pleasant experience.

Recent reviews
2.3 /5 from 71 reviews
Check in was quick and easy. Right on the highway minutes from Kings Dominion. Plenty of space for me and my friends. Like the fact the room had a mini fridge and a small table with chairs so my friends and I had a spot to play Magic: The Gathering when got by from the theme park. Wifi was a bit spotty though. A little underwhelmed by the complimentary breakfast. But with the price, location, and ease of the check in/check out.
Stay was OK. The beds were very uncomfortable
It was terrible, the beds were hard n full size, the toilet leaked everytime u flushed it, we had 3 towels totaled for 2 room. When we asked for more we were told no, so we went n bought our own.
I knew this wasn't a 5 star hotel. But they accommodated me and my children, and made sure I had adjoining rooms. The owner was very polite and professional. This room served its purpose for a place to rest during our vacation.
Worst night of my life

In Massa? Goto La Tana del Brilli. It's a small restaurant so ensure you reserve. The cooking is great. Expect real Tuscan cooking with some local and interesting ingredients.
One of the best meals of my life, and I've eaten a bunch. Definitely worth finding a way to experience a meal here. It's a small place so reservations are essential for dinner, possibly a few days in advance. Lunch is easier to schedule - go that route if time is scarce.
I tried to book a table here twice. The first time I was asked to come back in ten minutes and found the place closed. The second time I was asked to do the same. This time I returned earlier and was greeted by a young gentleman who laughed and told me that all tables were now reserved. Having wheeled...
We stopped over in Massa Marittima for lunch and ate here. The food was excellent - we had some pasta (Pici) with a pesto-y sauce and the pig shin (stinco). Both were excellent and really delicious as well as very reasonably priced. In case you visit this town I recommend to eat here.
There are only four tables. Wow. If you want to taste there, you'd better book early place.I felt like Alice in Wonderland , at a moment I moved to another reality. Very interesting dishes make by en excellent Italian chef, every detail thought out . Place is intimate, quiet, elegant, relaxing place.
it is very small, lovely decor ,very nice attitude. everything we had, we were 6 people was extremely nice, prepared with care, and the bill was very reasonable. highly recommended . you need to book since it is so small
Had lunch as a group of 6 with different tastes and needs (one was intolerant to gluten). Was really nice and typical food from region., typical food from
The restaurant is very small, but the atmosphere is really amazing. Reservation for dinner is needed. The dishes are peculiar, and everything we had was simply impressively tasty. As a dessert, I had cantucci and vin santo: the best I have ever had. Definitely a place worth trying.
We had lunch in this beatifull small place around the corner from the central square. Service was good, food was excellent ( real italian! ), and I cannot conclude otherwise: it deserves it's high ranking on ta, and I would recommend it anytime.
We discovered this cosy restaurant on July 12th by chance. It is nestled in the heart of the town, it proposes an original menù with traditional recipes, high quality ingredients and Slow Food products. As an example, you may taste the Testaroli from Pontremoli or excellent home made noodle with local mold cheese from small scale producers.

Johannesburg: Yorkshire batsman Gary Ballance has said that he was taken aback by his inclusion in England`s squad for the forthcoming Ashes tour of Australia but he was looking forward to the challenge ahead.
According to Sport24, the 23-year-old was one of three players, along with former Ireland paceman Boyd Rankin and Durham all-rounder Ben Stokes, yet to make their Test debuts who were included in England`s 17-man squad announced Monday.
Ballance said that he was not expecting it at all and it will be a lifetime experience, adding that it was an honour to represent England at the highest level and it will be extra special in an Ashes series.
However, he said that it will be a little daunting playing with some of the best player sin the world but he knew that he would be made welcome.
It would appear Ballance`s best chance of forcing his way into the Test side is to displace county colleague Bairstow, who has struggled in England`s problem position of number six, the report said.

Managerless Sunderland face a tough ask in their bid for a first Premier League win of the season when they host Liverpool on Sunday.
Paolo Di Canio paid the price for a poor start to the season – which has yielded just one point from five league games - when he was sacked following last week's 3-0 loss at West Brom.
Caretaker boss Kevin Ball stepped in for Tuesday's 2-0 League Cup victory over Peterborough United and will retain his place in the dugout for this fixture as Sunderland continue to search for a new manager.
Ball will take confidence from the victory, which saw midfielder Lee Cattermole play a key role.
Cattermole was rarely involved during Di Canio's brief tenure and Ball has backed the 25-year-old to help Sunderland move away from the foot of the table.
"When I saw him on the pitch on Tuesday - bearing in mind he had not played 90 minutes for a long time - I think he produced a very accomplished performance, along with a fabulous ball for the goal," Ball told the Newcastle Evening Chronicle.
Of immediate concern for Ball is shoring up a leaky defence that has not kept a Premier League clean sheet in their last nine matches, of which six have ended in defeats.
Defenders Wes Brown (calf) and Phil Bardsley (foot) are still sidelined, while attacker Fabio Borini is ineligible under the terms of his loan move from Liverpool.
Striker Steven Fletcher (shoulder) will also miss the fixture, meaning American Jozy Altidore is set to start up front, while defender Andrea Dossena (thigh) may return against his former club.
Liverpool enter the match on the back of successive defeats to Southampton and Manchester United.
Brendan Rodgers' side enjoyed their fair share of chances in the 1-0 League Cup loss at Old Trafford, which saw Luis Suarez make his return from suspension.
The Uruguayan forward will play his first Premier League fixture at The Stadium of Light after serving his 10-match ban for biting Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic.
Vice-captain Daniel Agger missed Wednesday's fixture at Old Trafford with a knock and is in doubt, while fellow defenders Glen Johnson and Aly Cissokho (both ankle) and Sebastian Coates (knee) are sidelined.
Creative midfielder Philippe Coutinho will also miss out after undergoing shoulder surgery.
Liverpool will take heart from their good away form in the league, with Rodgers' side unbeaten in their last six matches on the road.
Striker Daniel Sturridge – who has scored four Premier League goals – has netted seven strikes in his last four away games in the league.
And Liverpool, who are likely to field former Sunderland players Simon Mignolet and Jordan Henderson, will be hopeful his hot streak of form on the road continues as they go in search of a fourth Premier League win this season.
