From The Telegaph: Fat cleared from London sewers ...
(Paul) Thanks everyone for their kind words and support over the last couple of weeks. While things will never be the same, we're getting close to finding our new 'normal'.
Edinburgh Festival is upon us, so expect some poorly written and highly repetitive reviews here soon. Haikus will hopefully return in September.

(Paul) It's Penn Street Beer Festival this weekend - it's within walking distance of my house!
If anyone in the Facebook-o-sphere would like to come along, it would be great to see you. Weather permitting, hope to be there Sat and Sun.

(Paul) Holiday haiku 4
I look up to the
private boats, down on day hire.
Day hire, know your place.

(Paul) Holiday haiku 3
Boat and bed and board?
The brochure failed to mention
the bed is a board.

(Paul) Holiday haiku 2
Could not enter pub
in Stratford-Upon-Avon
because I was Bard.

(Paul) No topical haikus this week - on holiday!
Canal holiday
Before leaving the boatyard,
bitten by a swan.

(Paul) Any Count Arthur Strong fans out there?
I have 3 spare tickets to see the recording of "Count Arthur Strong's Entertainment Game" - a TV pilot for the Count at last!
Teddington Studios, Friday 9th July. Doors at 7pm, but best 6:30/earlier as they offer more tickets than seats.
If you want to join us there, send me a message rather than comment here.
It's another string to his elbow...

(Paul) I swam a mile this afternoon. For some that may not sound much, but 2 years ago I couldn't swim a stroke.
