A day for the ladies.

Lovely lunch with the ladies from Jordan today at a great little Italian near Harrods. We laughed... a lot... Then afterwards there was a second reunion with two old friends from when I lived and worked in the UK. This one started with champagne and ended with amazing seats at the Anniversary Games.

On a day that was advertised as being all about Usain Bolt and the 100m, for me, Team GB ladies achieving the best time in the last 12 years for their 4 x 100m relay, really stole the show. Our seats were immediately below the BBC commentary box and in between events we indulged in a bit of star spotting. Fans of UK athletics will be able to name the sporting lovelies in today's picture ;)

Good friends, good books, and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.
