It really was. And what a tonic that game was. Pure joy there at the end.
Loved watching Steve Clarke with his players. Top-drawer happy Dad energy.
Also, who wouldn’t want to be Scott?

I’m a teacher. So not money.
My family are Irish.
My parents came to London from Sligo in 1968 during a strike at the Arigna mine in Sligo.
I went to Cornwall on holiday with a mate in 85 and just love the countryside.
My Dad’s in this march somewhere.

First thought - a caltrop, for throwing under horses to turn their ankle. It’s a bit too pretty for that though I suppose. Here’s one from the First World War.

OK - maybe the greatest “punch the air moment” in all of music for me. Saw Arthur Lee in 2005 in Birmingham with a fantastic young starry eyed backing band. When the mariachi trumpet comes in on Alone Again Or at 1 min 47s. Bliss.

Oh yes. Every single thing about this. I remember as a kid thinking - why doesn’t everything sound like this? We only had our parents records. After this and Buddy Holly, we laid our hands on the Jim Reeves - absolutely nothing doing there. Has he not heard Hound Dog?

LOVE that.
Here’s another one - Bye Bye Pride, the Everly Brothers harmonies on “So take your shoes outside, walk to that tide, stride over stride , because the door is open wide STRIDE over stride.” Heartstopping.!
And they warned us they were going to do it - Bye Bye Love.

If this was the 19th century, Labour would recall Gordon Brown to the Treasury. Gladstone et al didn’t fall off a cliff when they lost an election.

Bought this in a sale at the Nelson Mandela building in Manchester Uni. in 1987 along with a bootleg tape of Prince’s Black Album and have been reading it ever since.

If you had told 14 year old me that soon technology would be so advanced that I could watch Shelley and Minder all evening using a handheld computer that would have convinced me the future was benign.
