Could be a busy time perhaps🤔

Last Wednesday the sun shone here. Nothing forecast now until next Friday. Its grim down South.

Yesterday I saw my first daffodil in flower. #Spring is on its way.
Just need the weather man to switch off the rain and turn on some sunshine.

🔴🔝🔴 SFC Top 10 - most goals scored by subs 🔴🔝🔴

#6=: Marians Pahars (6 goals as a sub)

Saints legend, and Latvia’s most talented ever player. Joined in 1999 and was a key figure in ensuring Premier League survival that year, including his famous brace against Everton on the final day.

#8=: Nathan Redmond (5 goals as a sub)

Earmarked as our replacement for Sadio Mane, but never quite fulfilled his huge potential. Also played for Birmingham, Norwich and Besiktas, and earned 1 England cap.

🔴🔝🔴 SFC Top 10 - goalkeeper clean sheet % 🔴🔝🔴

#7: Peter Shilton (35.5% - 86 CS in 242 games)

Unquestionably one of our greatest-ever players. We were the 4th of 5 clubs (alongside Leicester, Stoke, Nottingham Forest and Derby) for which he played more than 100 games.

#SaintsFC Now 7 points off the top six

#SaintsFC slipping down the table. Now 7 points off the top 6

Merry Christmas to you Bill. Best foot forward in the New Year🥾

There will no doubt be some tinkering when the window opens and have already seen a suggestion that we are looking at a keeper perhaps on loan.

#SaintsFC Just 4 points off the top 6

Have the same issue in the New Forest.

#SaintsFC Just 3 points off the top six.

Very few took advantage of Mark Dennis and survived.

Yes a small shovel and a large barrow with a long walk to the tip.

I recall that one sports day at school we had a Space Hopper Derby race. Great fun

🔴🔝🔴 SFC Top 10 - appearances by African players 🔴🔝🔴

#8: Sadio Mane (Senegal, 75 games)

One of the most talented players to ever wear red and white stripes. His fastest-ever top flight hat-trick, scored in 2m 56s vs Aston Villa, is a record which will surely outlive all of us.

Do you agree?

Touch of winter colour. This view shows what was once a railway route.

Christmas Cacti in bloom.

Christmas Cacti has flowered as it does every year in mid November. #ChristmasCacti #Indoorgardening

The joy of seeing the print develop in the processing trays is magical. Don't get that enjoyment with digital.
