Olympian alert

A nice view of Chesil Beach

Spent a lovely weekend away in Portland. A particular highlight was seeing a whole pub full of white-blond Swedes with ridiculously tanned skin and small noses. They were all trying out for a place in the Olympic sailing team. With them was an ex-Olympian who was training them up. His name was Steven but he said in Sweden that translates as 'stiff one'. I think that was some kind of misinformed chat-up line. It would never have worked. He was in his late fifties and looked like Michael Eavis.
