Good.

I went to my first game at Elland Road in 1964 and can honestly say the Bielsa era was as enjoyable as any in my 61(!) years of support.
The fans, the team, Bielsa were as one.

Big Leeds fan too!!

Cheers.

Was given a lift in a Dacia Sandero. It was quiet and comfortable.
Putting the silly Top Gear jokes aside, are they any good?
(Spare a thought for a Yorkshireman in the process of spending money on a new car)

If James Whale had been American, he'd probably have been a senior member of the Trump administration.

I plan to watch.

Two weeks, a fortnight, 14 days before the madness commences.
The Bristol City game seems a million years ago.

For decades, viewers sat down in front of the TV at 6pm to find out what had happened during the day.
The BBC needs to learn that's no longer the case and do something different at 6pm.
Half expecting to see Robert Dougall and Richard Baker make an appearance.

There's a repeat of a Four in Bed episode on All 4 that features a gay couple in Spain, one of whom I knew at work.
I suspect coming out in a Middlesbrough FE college in the mid 90s was a bigger challenge than reacting to a £10 deduction for discoloured grouting.

Storm Floris giving the trees a good blowing here in North Yorkshire.
My plums are getting a right hammering.

Thank God the Test series is over so we can now enjoy The Hundred.

Some of the England players need to have a good look at themselves. Aggression is great, recklessness ain't.

2 2 is a fair reflection of the series.

Undoubtably, Siraj is the player of the series.
Makes a Duracell bunny look bone idle.

Sad to lose. Delighted Siraj took the final wicket.
What a series.

Alistair Cook is fantastic on TMS. His insights are so so good.

My wife was once in a minibus with a dozen asylum seekers and they were terrified going down it.

Some may prefer their cricket when balls are disappearing into the stands. Some of us love it when every run is like pulling teeth.

Saltburn Bank on a bus feels very like the end of The Italian Job.

In the last 10 minutes the bus driver has
- Reassured a very frail passenger getting on
- Driven the bus up a 1 in 3 hill which includes a hairpin bend
- Offered excellent advice to two tourists exiting the bus
Further evidence that low pay doesn't mean low skill.

I usually had to pretend I'd let them win when they won on their own.

Just had to listen to 25 minutes of Tom Jones on a loop while waiting for a helpline to answer.
Was cruel but not unusual...

Most 5 year olds know when adults let them win at games and know it makes a mockery of the result.
Seemingly, one 79 year old doesn't.

If Pant is box office so is Siraj.

If you ignore the incident with the iceberg the maiden voyage of Titanic was a success.

Just because Brook made it look easy doesn't mean it was.

All Bethell had to do was block. A bloody awful way to be out.
