• Hi all, Well, a day off yesterday and the sun was shining! We have training today and then 39 friends and family for the divers and staff are visiting and joining us for supper - should be hectic!! Some 'random' photos today!My bed in the Olympic village (need to take one in focus!), the lion mascot, Dean, our Southampton physio, and Xinde, our Chinese coach, the view of Southend amusement park, the gnomes and houses the divers have been painting! and Xinde with a silly hat! All my photos are used up now, so may need to wait till I'm back in the Village for new ones!

• Hi all, Training is going well! The team are all in good spirits! Nearly out of pictures now and a rest day tomoz, so next blog probably after the weekend! Today's pictures are all of the dining hall - a fairly vast area catering for all different cultures - best of British, USA, Caribbean, Halal, Pizza and, of course, McDonalds! Hope everyone is keeping well,

Greetings from a rainy and cloudy Southend! Today you get pictures from the souvenir shop in the village - check out the price of the football. Some lovely gifts, but pretty expensive! Training is going well, and everyone is looking forward to friends and family coming to visit on Sunday!

• Today, Wednesday, we have a media day. Yesterday in Southampton's Daily Echo was a big article (front page) about Chris Mears and today there is one about Pete. Pictures today - the aquatics centre seating, the athletes lounge at the pool x 2, the Olympic athletics stadium, the welcome message board in the Village, myself and Alexei (out performance director), the view from my apartment! Today the weather is much more pleasant, which is a good thing for all the visitors coming to London!

Hi all, So, we arrived at the Olympic Village yesterday. It was raining and windy! We were the first team of any Nation and any sport to arrive at the Village and it was a bit of a ghost town! Photos of  Chris Mears with his accreditation, Peter Waterfield and Tom Daley outside our apartment block,  the drinks cabinet at the pool, accreditation being collected, our opening + closing ceremony and formal wear luggage, Pete, Tom, Jack, Chris and Nick (all our male divers)! More tomorrow! We are now back in Southend at our holding camp and I go back into the Olympic Village next Wednesday. The traffic was 'normal' travelling into London - it will be interesting to see how bad it gets!
