Is anyone else sick to death of Wimbledon?

We went to the Hoppings today, on Newcastle Town Moor; it was good and as big and noisy as ever, but the rain was a pain. Oh, we're off to Berlin tomorrow ... ah, Reinheitsgebot.

For want of a better word, I'm knackered. I think we must have covered around 90% of Teesside on foot this weekend. My legs are achey and one of them is sunburned (or perhaps it's a radiation burn), but I've had a great couple of days. Considerable restraint was exercised when stopping at hostelries for cold beer and a surprising variety of wildlife was encountered; including overly friendly, drooling cows, sheep (contrary to popular belief, Teesside sheep have only four legs and aren't terribly mutated), a horse, a squirrel, a grasshopper, a rabbit (although it may have been a rat) and a very smelly man at the station. Speaking of smells, I've noticed that the underside of the bridge adjacent to Stockton station has of late developed a strong smell of sewage. And, while on the subject of observations, I've noticed that the seagulls in Sunderland city centre are positively thriving on discarded Greggs' pasty and Big Mac remnants.

It's both hilarious and scary at the same time to think that this one's for real: he found out hes got goul stones and they are playing him up big time and hes got the sack from hes job as well which was not good for him .
