Summer 2012

Summer has been a complete washout so far in the UK, we have already recorded the wettest June since records began, and so far, July is heading the same way. The Olympics will be with us in a few short weeks, so hopefully there is not much more rain coming - on the plus side, any concerns about a shortage of water earlier in the year, have proved to be premature...
So far, the summer of sport has proved moderately successful with the England team doing better than anticipated in the Football European Championships (quarter-finals) and Andy Murray getting to the final of Wimbledon for the first time. We have plenty of sport to come, and hopefully some of the events will bring gold to the GB team on their own turf.

I think we have done better at the sporting events than the British public have expected which I think is a great sign for the Olympics. If only we were more positive about the achievements - people will criticise Murray because he lost in the final forgetting that he was the second best player in the world on that day - WOW!! If the British were more positive I think it would have an impact on everything including sport and we would get out of this recession really quickly.
