Kangaroo Court

I've been suspended from Twitter for the second time in two days. This time, I decided to challenge it. That would explain why I've not been allowed back on!

I've not been doing much recently. Well, nothing I can tell you about. My life, such as it is, is not very exciting. I just seem to spend all my spare time ranting at politicians on Twitter and posting cat pictures on Facebook. With the football and concert seasons ended, I'm in that limbo called Summer. We have had some sun this year, honestly, and I've had one or two symptoms of hay fever, so it must be that season between Spring and Autumn. I'm due to go on holiday, too, in a couple of weeks. I've boughg a silly hat and some new t-shirts, so here's hoping I get to wear them.

Another sign that summer is here is that Wimbledon has happened, and what a tournament it turned out to be. Most of the big names went out in the first week, either through defeat or injury, leaving the World No.1 and No.2 to come through their respective halves of the draw. If you haven't heard already, 'Britain' won, for the first time since the 1930s. What I mean is that a British male tennis player won for the first time in 77 years. What's more, he's Scottish. Cue Mr. and Mrs. Salmond waving a saltire behind Caneron's head. Priceless. Well done, Andy Murray.
