		<description><![CDATA[Much of the media comment today on the first day of the Democratic Convention in Denver is about whether Hilary Clinton&#8217;s supporters will get over their personal disappointment and throw their support behind Barack Obama&#8217;s bid for the US Presidency. But I was utterly mesmerised by the speech made by Michelle Obama. She spoke clearly [...]]]></description>

Not a few of Britain&#8217;s stay-at-home holiday makers came to Charmouth, instead of flying to Spain. They were not disappointed, as my pic demonstrates. Our own visitor, however, needed her walking boots to get to our front door, as my next picture demonstrates.
The work on the front drive is likely to go on for a [...]]]></description>

The newspapers on both sides of the pond generally gave Barack Obama&#8217;s choice of Joe Biden, the 65 year old senator from Delaware, as his vice-presidential running mate, the thumbs up. The London Sunday Times headlined their story:
