| When people who had never been to the Caribbean embraced their Jamaican side |
How do I get back to life after the Olympics? Ahh those
blissful two weeks which went like this.. Wake up look at my canvas and then go
switch on the TV and consume some gymnastics, dressage (tip toeing horses), a
bit of Clare Balding on the swimming, then Adonis bodies heating up the track
in the evenings. Aaahhh the life.

| Everything was gold, post boxes our medal table and the return of Wispa Gold |
The Olympic fire has been extinguished and I have to admit
I’m nostalgic for those days, because the news was filled with gold dust
instead of rail fare rises, but another thing is ending in my life... Game of
Thrones.

| Daenerys Targaryen rising from the flames with a new pet. |
Yes I’m talking about the medieval fantasy novel turned HBO
series on Sky Atlantic. On my Kindle rests the last book in the series which I
downloaded last night and I’m scared because ever since Daenerys Targaryen was reborn from the flames with not one but
three dragons adorning her body, I’ve been sucked into a world where many of my
favourite characters have been dealt quite harshly by the writer George Martin and
I’m desperate for a good pay off after investing in all 5 books (with an
average of 600 pages per novel) in the series.

| All together now. SHHHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTT |
That’s the problem with investing in something... the return?
Great returns belong The Wire – time
well spent including a midnight dash to Piccadilly’s HMV to purchase box set
number 4 after finishing series 3 at 22:38pm. Pay Off yes 100%
But I do hope Game of Thrones will give me a better return
than our GB relay team.
