A very sad day yesterday as we came to the end of season 3 of Ted Lasso. We were very late to this particular party, but what an excellent series it’s been. Can’t wait for season 4! From what I read in the papers this morning, the two episodes we watched last night were much…
So after a lovely Saturday, Sunday was something of a disappointment. My wonderful football team played in a rather less than wonderful fashion to lose the Carabao Cup Final to a, frankly, bang average Newcastle Utd 2-1. If Liverpool had been playing someone half way decent they would have got hammered! The players of the…
I’m having a sporty week or so. Andy and I had one of our afternoons at Fylde Rugby yesterday. It’s a good oportunity to have a couple of pints and a natter while watching live sport that we don’t really understand and where the result doesn’t really matter to us. It’s nice to see Fylde…

If you have read my blog fairly regularly, you will know that I am always banging on about how grateful I am to the NHS for keeping me going despite my various medical conditions. Well my dear wife and I now have another reason for gratitude. Unfortunately, just over a week ago, Heather had a…
OK, I admit I’m a bit of a politics nerd. We have a subscription to The Guardian and a subscription to The Times and I usually read John Crace’s diary piece in The Guardian on Prime Minister’s Questions and sometimes Tom Peck’s sketch in The Times. For those who are unaware, the centrepiece of PMQs…
