    Oh god Carlton popped back only to tell me that his salad Niçoise was the most disappointing ever, just a bag of leaves....


    And then he was gone. That's how disappointing the salad was. It did for him.

    France 3 does. In fact, if you go to their website you can choose which camera to watch.

    In the Vondel Park? I don't know, I don't think so, no sight this morning on my way to work and I didn't hear anything last night.

    No matter how injured you are, carrying on cycling has to be a more welcoming option than spending three hours in a car with Marc Madiot.

    Poor Bouhanni really does look miserable doesn't he? I'd feel sorry for him if he was lying in bed looking like that, never mind trying to ride a couple of hundred kms in baking heat and blustery wind.

    Probably a blessing in disguise, I think he might be Muslim and Ramadan begins next week so not sure how the feck he would manage the tour whilst fasting!

    94km to go and Paul gets a "put the hammer down" in. Excellent.

    I sincerely hope he bestows a "suitcase of courage" on Bouhanni

    Geraint on the front looking perky - good sign. Riding through a hip fracture in the Tour De France hehe... That's him never needing to buy a pint again.

    There better not be a festival on. Sharing a train with a load of Belgian metallers on Tuesday was bad enough

    He must have been waiting for me to nip out for a can of coke - missed it. Glad the suffering is over for him - poor guy.

    It's a 'grown up' festival with jazz and world music and stuff and it is as the name suggests over the Ij so in the north in the old disused docks where all the hipsters now hang out so not really in Amsterdam. Not to worry.
