The charity "Kids Company" has closed, due to financial problems.

Central to the whole sad tale is Camila Batmanghelidjh (below).

I'm not sure what it is about this young lady, but something about her just does not sit right with me.  The Charity, of course, has done some wonderful things, no doubt about it.

London Tube Strike

It just feels wrong that the Unions choose commuters as their weapon. Have to feel sorry for folks trying to go, or get home, from work in these circumstances.

The strike arose due to TfL's intention to offer a 24 hour tube service, which, on balance, must be a wonderful & well over due thing.

The Unions feel their members are being taken advantage of, & will be forced to work longer & harder.

The strike continues until tomorrow. Someone needs to intervene in this.

A rum do.

Did you ever see a more astonishing morning's sport? OK, maybe not THE best ever, but not far off.

The stats guys were in a right state, so many records broken in a single morning.

Is it judged by length, speed or quality of stroke?
