A poem about Dickie Bird by Ian McMillan which he read out on BBC Radio Sheffield earlier today:

It's the final over
Of the final test
And Time is bowling
The final ball;
And the innings that stretched To 92
Will end just here
'Cos it's umpire's call.

On friday I dropped beer at Darlington Snooker club. Amazing place 8 taps on the bar further 8 in the lounge and 20+ more for beer fests. Also the largest pump clip collection I've seen in a bar. Beer fest in a couple of weeks if you want to pop in
