Come on Button!
I woke up this morning fairly early. Not quite as early as yesterday. I looked at the internet, and the blog stats. Plenty of graphs there to look at. I got up around 9am, and had a shave. I used Dad’s shaving foam, as mine ran out in Shanghai.
I went downstairs using my crutches rather than arseing it. Much easier than I thought, and quicker as well. Once downstairs, I had 2 Weetabix™ with milk but no sugar, and a glass of orange juice. I have said it before, my body is now a temple.
At 11am, Tracey came over and brought some magazines and bank letters from Rugby. Plenty of “Stuff” magazines to take back to Shanghai when I return. I showed Tracey my X-rays (X-ray whore remember), and my scar, which is healing quite well now.
At 12:10pm, the coverage of the Turkish GP started, so I moved chairs to be in a better position for watching the TV. It is the first time I have seen the start of the new BBC coverage, and I am glad they have used “The Chain” by Fleetwood Mac as the title music. Aything else would have been wrong, just wrong. Our man Button pulled a rabbit out of the hat on the first lap, and cruised to victory number 6 of the year. What really annoys me is, the one race I went to this year was the only one he has not won! I had thought about going to Silverstone when I was back here, but in my current condition, that is not possible. Also, I would not want to be there and he didn’t win again, as that would prove I am a curse.
I spoke to Ma Yan on skype for a while after the race. She was not happy with Hamilton’s performance. But, as she says, it is his car. Mum and Dad have gone out to Jenny and Joe’s for a meal, and left me on my own to fed for myself. Luckily, Gina is going to appear later, so that I can get fed and watered.
I shall finish watching a Timewatch programme about the D-Day landings on Omaha beach. Richard Hammond is presenting it, and it is done very well.
Will this little injury stop you from coming to the War and Peace show with the rest of the 40 Com lads?
