Meanwhile in London (and Berlin, and Cornwall ...)

Hello Edinburgh...

Just a quick note to say that the Live 8 concerts are in full swing in London, Berlin, Rome and other cities, and at the Eden Project in Cornwall. You can follow the latest with Caroline Sullivan over on Culture Vulture.

We've got photographs from some of the concerts around the world, and audio reports from the Africa Calling concert at the Eden Project, where Peter Gabriel's been voicing his disappointment that Geldof could not make more space for black artists in Hyde Park, and from Berlin where Morten Harket is among those on the bill.

Oh, and the Lions were trounced, England were 49-5 after 18 overs in response to Australia's 196, and the women's Wimbledon final has just gone to a third set.
