What a fantastic weekend of sport we've had here in the UK. Not only did the Lions Rugby team convincingly beat Australia in the final test, but a British man has finally won Wimbledon!
Having waited 77 years for the latter to happen it's understandable that today the country is talking of nothing else!
Wimbledon is a uniquely British affair, and its crisp green grass courts, strawberries and cream on demand and enthusiastic crowd make it one of the most popular sporting tournaments in the world.
However, with the success of the Olympics it was hard to imagine anything even coming close to the emotional connection the country had with sport last summer, but yesterday proved that theory wrong.
Yet again the success of British sport has brought us together as a nation, and enhanced the already positive feeling that comes with being British.
So why not celebrate yet another British sporting success story with a glass of Pimms and a bowl of strawberries and cream wherever you are in the world!
