Why is it necessary for us to carry on if our Olympic competitors don't get a medal? I think they are all marvellous to get there at all. The dedication and sacrifices they have to make ! I'd like to see some of those armchair critics having a go. However, everybody cheered up today as our team GB got some medals.
Ramblings of a nonagenerian (vintage 1923). Grew up in Lambeth in the 20s and 30s. Lived and worked in London during World War II. I have been attempting to do the Telegraph Cryptic Crossword since 1939! (My daughter says I *have* to write this, but I am troubled as it sounds so conceited.) I bought my first computer aged 85 and am continually frustrated by the vagaries of the technological age.

Taxes
I have spent the last few days putting off dealing with a horrid form sent to spoil my watching of the Olympics by the Inland Revenue. How I wish Don was still here. What is the good of being married to an Inspector of Taxes for years and putting up with all those awful jokes if he is not here when his nasty bosses send me a form to fill in. I really should have paid more attention . Oh well ! I'll send it off and hope I don't end up in Jail. Back to the Olympics.
