You always make me laugh ( in the nicest possible way Boris ). Have a fantastic holiday...can highly recommend Marbella, currently blue skies and only a few sunburnt Brits about in total denial " I'm not burnt, I just go this colour before I turn brown." Ps after watching "who do you think you are" on tv last night should I now address you as Your Royal Highness?!It may mean of course that you are now expected to holiday in Scotland. Cough.... Good for you! You always make me laugh ( in the nicest possible way Boris ).

We lambast the US citizens for not owning a passport, but then spend all our time moaning about the number of UK holiday makers in the Algarve. You can't have it both ways: either travel broadens the mind and therefore the UK populace is more intellectually stimulated than our US counterparts, or we stay at home, moan about the weather, and lose vital brain cells watching Trisha. I know what I'd choose - Vive le Sud!

Have you (or anyone) been to 'Great' Yarmouth recently? What a sad hole it is! I grew up there before it was vandalised, when it was truly Great with a 100 yard Olympic sized swimming pool with season tickets also and a Marina open air theatre (demolished of course) with family shows morning and evening. I even saw the Rolling Stones there on at the Regal! And there were at least five top name shows on, such were the visitor numbers to sustain it all then - It was all art decoish and delightfully 'old fashiioned! the vandal council there wrecked it so that it is now just a place for saddos, drunks and social security B&B - terrible! Brighton is just about ok though! But, I suggest Boris that you join me (en famille of course) on one of the Paris Plages where I am writing this courtesy of Paris free wifi. Now that Mayor - the Mayor of Paris Monsieur Delanoe knows how to make people happy! why not team up with him and create something like it for hard pressed Londoners - Paris this August for me is truly a dream and it is all free! Lots of Love Quite right Boris, the med know how to give folk a good time! Have you (or anyone) been to ‘Great’ Yarmouth recently? What a sad hole it is!

Don’t let all the PC, tree hugging, do gooders sway you. Take your holiday, like every other sensible, hardworking person in this country, and return with vigour to inject some much needed common sense and dynamism into London. by the way, if you could start with TFL and their stupid Oyster ticket system which is excepted on some trains, not on others, but will let you through the gates regardless.... that would save me about 20gbp a month in fines!
