Unsolicited "Watch this trick!" pic.
A photo of Gazzo (Garry Osbourne) after the finale of his signature cups and balls routine. Gazzo is wearing a bowler hat, dark gray sport coat, and a white t-shirt with a red design on it. He is outside busking and is in front of a gray stone wall. He stands behind a performance table on which is his wand, three copper cups, six oranges, and a melon. He is pointing to camera left and saying something into his microphone. Probably asking for money.

I don't share many of my chess games because I'm a mediocre casual player, but I'm a bit proud of this checkmate I found.

Ginny and took the quick train ride to Billericay to watch Athletico London take on Hutton in the Eastern Region Women’s Football League. Atletico won 3-2…comfortably in control until a mistake near the end made it exciting!

New seasons bring new hope, this time with a rebranding and the goal of bouncing straight back up to the National League from the Eastern Region Women’s Football League. Offseason continuity we lacked last time meant recruiting, development, and preseason preparation bodes well for our performance.

I've recently received a lot of meeting requests from spammers that end up in my Outlook calendar against my will. To stop Outlook from adding ics files automatically, go to File | Options | Mail, scroll down to the Tracking section, and clear the Automatically process meeting requests... box.
