A couple of footballing thoughts about the football.
-
taking off Grealish was brave
-
Kane’s penalty was worse than Southgate’s
-
if Kane’s penalty had been better, then Schmeichel would have pushed it out to the side, not back towards Kane
-
it’s a funny old game
My word of the day today is ‘gleam’.

You have to do ‘-Scope It’ to restrict it to your individual ‘It’ test
Dunno if the same is true for ‘Should -Invoke’
A very wise woman once said to me that people are only really interested in hearing about your holidays if things went disastrously wrong
She was right, and she’d would enjoy this.
That was one of the first half-dozen or so records I bought…and it had a good B-side too
For youngsters and other people who may not be entirely familiar with the New Wave music of the late ’70s.
I’m not sure why Feargal Sharkey is popping up under Web Development, and I didn’t know he was interested in Southern Water’s pollution record….but it’s nice to see him
My word of the day today is ‘jittery’.
In 2005, England’s cricketers got MBE’s for beating Australia in that year’s Ashes.
I’ve no argument with that…..but if* England did win the #EURO2020, what should they get?
Knighthoods? Places in the Houses of Lords? Cornwall?

I love this record but there’s a bit in it that sounds a bit like part of Happy Birthday
At least, it does to me.
My word of the day today is ‘miscreant’.
I understand it makes a lot of difference to people working in pubs and restaurants and probably other areas
Personally, though, it’s a bit underwhelming.
“This is the most boring possible Terminator sequel, where the robots aren’t here to murder or enslave you but rather to text you snidely that you won’t need to come into work tomorrow or, for that matter, ever again.”
I wonder what proportion of the country will be significantly more free on ‘Freedom Day’?
“No10 has refused to condemn football fans who boo England players for taking a knee before Euro championship matches”
My guess is that the memory of Megan Rapinoe and Donald Trump is now keeping the Prime Minister awake at night
My word of the day today is ‘mitigate’.
