Japanese Visitors
A coach load of Japanese tourists arrived on the door step so while they took pictures of us I got them back. they all thought it was funny and started to wave. The temperature was not quite as high today and in fact a covering of cloud has developed tonight. The football season starts tonight so Matthew and I might catch the Liverpool game later.
