The Westway Travellers' Site sits, as the sign says, at the 'end of Stable Way', which sounds rather bucolic if you can ignore the mainline trains thundering past, and shut your ears to the constant throb of the traffic overhead on the A40 flyover. Irish Travellers and Gypsies are set culturally apart from the rest of the population by official decree - they have their own formal ethnic status in Britain - but in London they live wedged in the midst of the general mayhem of the capital. Just a few hundred yards away from the Westway Travellers' Site are the pockets of fashionable North Kensington streets around Oxford Gardens, where the spillover from the Notting Hill set make their homes, and where David Cameron erected the famous wind turbine on his roof. No wonder the Travellers on t...
RONAN O'GARA takes centre stage on his favourite piece of real estate this afternoon defying Wales to end three decades of almost unbroken Irish rule in Cardiff. Ireland's reinstated fly-half has converted the Millennium Stadium into a fiefdom of his very own, lording it over all-comers there in the course of achieving a Holy Trinity of victories for country and province beyond his wildest dreams. Now, after winning one Grand Slam for Ireland and two European Cup finals for Munster against French clubs, O'Gara intends to remind those with short memories that he remains master of the Welsh citadel.

FOR many years now Mohammed Al Fayed has been telling friends he wants to be buried in a gold sarcophagus. Eccentric as that notion might be, there seemed an odd sort of logic to the pharoah-like decree. Such whims are par for the course to those familiar with Al Fayed. Friends no doubt believed nothing he did could ever really shock them - until yesteday.

SOMETIMES we seem to be in danger of doing our sportsmen some disservice. We forget that for the most part they tend to be very young and have a lot to learn. The fact that they are often grossly overpaid shouldn't be allowed to cloud our judgment. They're only paid what some people are prepared to pay them. This train of thought trundled into the station recently when two footballers, Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo, were taken off before the end of matches in which they were taking part and Rooney started to throw boots about and Ronaldo looked as if someone had stolen his fruit gums. In neither case, I would submit, were the reactions all that surprising. Most people who played football in their youth and can still remember the experience, will realise, if they put their minds to ...
