Heating and the Worlds

We now have heating! It was a joy getting up at 05:30 this morning to have a shower in a warm bathroom. The 2½ hours drive afterwards was less fun, but that is life.

J and I went to Copenhagen yesterday to watch the cycling world championships. It was the time trial so the riders go one at a time against the clock meaning there is a steady stream of fast moving riders to watch. We also stood close to a big screen so that we could watch the action on that as well.

J sat on my shoulders throughout the afternoon which got to be pretty uncomfortable after a while but he saw a lot and enjoyed it so much that I may take him to watch the road race on Sunday as well.
It was great to see Bradley Wiggins getting a silver medal for GB

J's favourite - Fabian Cancellara could only manage 3rd after winning the last 4 years

    OK, I'll come now you've got heating & hot ware again.
    Cycling sounds good, J on shoulders sounds less good.

    Watched both mens World T T over here and noticed the type of building in Copenhagen and the friendly flag-waving crowds.
