  1. Saturday afternoon and just in case any of my family and friends
    were in doubt, I'm watching the prologue race on TV.

    In the front room, the lounge, its on the family TV on the
    Freeview Digital box on ITV2 with Phil Liggett.
    In the back room, the dining room, its on 20in TV/Vid unit
    with analogue satellite receiver on Eurosport with Mike Smith.
    My armchair is in the hallway straddling the two rooms with
    one foot and one ear in each.
    Here in the spare bedroom its on PC and I can watch
    www.letour.fr/2004 every time I rush to the bathroom to answer
    the call of nature.

    I'm snacking on red wine and french cheese. No, I'm not obsessed.

    Thanks for the tip - I can't watch it but at least I can listen to Phil
    Liggett and co. now! And I can only imagine what they're going on about
    Cipollini's new suit so much for.

    Sausage roll and coffee for me. Glamorous.

    My condolences on being afflicted with GRS.

  5. I am currently looking after the 6 and 7 year old while my wife is on
    holiday (and has taken the car).

    6yo had to go to a party so we went by bike, him on the trailerbike and his
    sister on her bike. Dropped off at the party, to Tesco's then back to pick
    up from the party.

    Home at just before 5, all a bit weary but on with the prologue, then
    negotiate with kids as to when supper would be ready. Ended up going for
    pizza ready just after Lance had finished his ride.

    Oldest was quite taken with it, youngest wanted to stick a video in but was
    outvoted.[1]

    [1] We have one man one vote in these situations. I am the man and I have
    the vote.
