Weekend Heat

Gorgeous morning here: sun is out, 19 degrees and breakfast on the terrace - London at its best.

Last night we had guests over, fancy drinks and inaugurating the South Africa version of Monopoly. Great entertainment until 2AM. At £30.00 the price for the SA board game could buy me 300 acres of land in Gauteng, or lunch for two in Cape Town.

It's a delight to see how competitors are losing their trademark players all over the place. First Beckham, then Rio Ferdinand, now Drogba... hope Rooney is next, dragged by a lion into the Kruger Park and mauled. In a week they will be thrashed by the US boys 3-0 (or maybe 4-0), setting the pace for an early exit for England. And if terrorists, or SA thugs dressed as policemen, kidnap the German squad, I will be totally happy. Throw them into the Indian ocean, them fookers!

Today we drive down to Canterbury and Dover, where I will be Emily-Aysu's tour guide. Back at 10 tonight for a party in Wimbledon, and we'll stay overnight with friends.

Good weekend to all, back on Monday!
