So I probably lied a little bit when I said we wouldn't run any more Tour de France news the other day, because Cadel Evans has gone and got his hands on the Yellow Jersey for another stage - rah rah, Aussie! Aussie! Aussie! Etc - and, as if by magic, there's another hilarious shot of him emotionally hugging a stuffed lion:

Evidently it's a sponsor thing, or maybe a mascot (you know, like Syd, Ollie and Dickhead from the Sydney Olympic Games), but I just want Cadel to keep winning, not so we can all dance in the streets about how Australians can be just as good as people from overseas, but because this has the potential to become the 'Keep Up The Cats!' of the second half of the year.
