Philippa 'had a go'
at my neck and shoulder last night, and by Christ has it made a difference! I
mean, the pain is still there, and is in fact much worse since she pulled me
around mercilessly and pummelled me purple, but I've got much more movement and
I don't feel as if someone has poured cement in the top of my right arm. I can
move my head round to the right for the first time in 48 hours and lifting my
right arm up doesn't make me wince. The girl did good! And she saved me the
forty quid it would have cost to have one of the onsite 'body workers' in the
spa sort me out, so everyone's a winner.
My enjoyment of the Olympics has been affected greatly by the annoyingly
haphazard nature of the coverage. The BBC are doing that thing they do where
they keep changing the channel that things are being shown on. I understand
they want to cover as much as they can, and try to capture any British chances
of medals, and make sure all the 'popular' athletes (by which I mean - ones
with lots of Instagram followers) are on screen, but it would be nice if they
would just start showing something and stick to it until it finishes. I was
trying to follow the GB men's hockey team the other day and it started on the
Red Button, then switched onto BBC1 for the third quarter, and then disappeared
completely so they could show BMX freestyle and tennis. What about those of us
who like hockey, and who don't have unlimited access to BBC websites while at
work?
Honestly, if I paid my TV licence fee, I might be tempted to revoke it.
