Keep getting YouTube notifications for this young lad. There's even videos of him aged just six playing like a seasoned pro. Not only plays well, but with feeling.

Back in the day, my Mums latest Grattans catalogue had arrived and I headed straight to the lingerie section. Imagine my delight when one model was wearing a see through bra. Quite tame compared to what is available today.....................so I'm led to believe .

Saffron Hill cemetery being absolutely rammed with Asian families, presumably visiting their dear departed resting place, or indeed for a funeral itself. Not a great deal you can say or do about that, but when they are parking and blocking access and exits in the cemetery and even parking on the grass beside graves, it isn't on. Total lack of respect for others. Then, to make matters worse, when someone we know was trying to visit a grave, a young Asian man - not an official - asked her to come back next week. Understanding and empathy needs to work both ways.

What I also found absolutely repulsive in the same report, was the 'Viewing area' for Israelis to watch the bombardment of Gaza. Telescopes, binoculars etc installed for you to get a better view and they've even installed vending machines for your added comfort, whilst you watch the atrocities unfold.

Yet again the grass in our garden and on the local parks, show how resilient it is. Weeks of looking dry and dead following the heat wave, then a couple of days of wet weather and it's all green and lush again.

Technology, Science and the Environment.

Green technologies impact on the environment. Is the world's race to decarbonise unintentionally stoking another environmental problem? -
It winds me up far more than it should but when reading a report on the men's test match and even listening to TMS, they refer to the 'Batter' and 'Night watcher' We know it's regarding a men's match so why not use the terms Batsman and Nightwatchman. I suspect almost no one will be offended.

Previously unseen interview. Quite enjoyed watching this.

I have a 'Soccer Stars' sticker book (pre Panini days) from that era and both are featured. As an aside, the blank page at the rear of the book is for autographs. Pride of place is Peter Shilton. I remember saying 'Thank You' after he signed it and he ruffled my hair and said 'Good Lad' -

Actually, I think he would make a very good goalkeeping coach. Watch him closely and listen intently to what he says, then do the exact opposite and you'll go far.

During the coverage, how long before the words, 'Minutes in legs', are uttered and how many times? I'm going for: 5 minutes. 9 times

That's not been announced either.

I haven't the foggiest as to what you're talking about.

What on the roads has annoyed you today?

Twice in 3 days I've had a car exiting a car park that drives straight across the pavement, without checking anyone is walking along said path., narrowly missing me They then stop to check no cars are coming before pulling out onto the road. TRY STOPPING TO CHECK NO ONES COMING ALONG THE PAVEMENT TOO, YOU TWONKS -
After reading this, I thought about some of the things I've done where I should have engaged my brain first. One notable example was when I did the equivalent of sawing off a tree branch whilst sitting on it. I was demolishing a timber framed conservatory and was quickly propping up a ladder at various points to climb and then saw through some struts. Unfortunately I lost my presence of mind and sawn through one which was supporting the ladder. Gravity, quickly pointed out my mistake.

That'll be a first.

Back To The Grind? For the first time since 2021 perhaps.

Spoke to a season ticket holder who doesn't frequent FT about Rohl, and it was the first they had heard about it.
