Thanks!

Thanks to all for your birthday greetings - good to hear from everyone. Yes, the footie *was* a major disappointment but, hey, it's not all bad.

• We beat the Aussies at the one-day cricket
  
• There's a Brit (alright, a Scot!) still in Wimbledon in the 2nd week
  
• An Englishman is leading the F1 championship

Oh, and I got a fish tank from Caroline and the girls for my birthday! Just set it up tonight so I'm still waiting for it to settle down before I put any livestock in it. Because Elena is working in the 'aquatics' bit of a local garden center I'm sure to get some good advice on what to buy!
