Not taken any photos.

Haven't photographed anything today. Weird day busy and quiet at same time. Le Tour went up and down high mountains. Wiggins and Frome came in second and third having dropped Nabali on the last climb. With almost 2 km to go Frome could probably have caught the stage winner and taken it himself but you could see him. Talking to Wiggin's who just for z couple of mins looked as though he was losing Frome's wheel. You could also see Frome jabbing on his mike to speak to the team car. The explanation turned out to be quite poignant. Wiggins suddenly realised they had done it. Having survived the mountains and wiped out their opponents he and Frome are 1st and 2nd in this magnificent race. He was thinking what it meant and what it had taken to get there and all those who have helped him. He openly admitted he lost the place and was becoming quite emotional and forgot he had to finish the race! Needless to say he came back to reality in time. I've never really taken to Wiggins as a man but this made me like him much more. There was a documentary about him tonight and again he came across as a nice decent but very motivated man who has overcome some demons. Role on Paris and the podium!!
