What a challenge (and not only to my shaky memory). My eight most memorable goals (mostly, but not all @avfc-official.bsky.social ) accompanied by eight tracks, and a good deal of verbiage on the side. Thanks to TheoDelaney #UTV theodelaney.com/life-goals-l...

For all you aquatic aesthetes, Splash! @designmuseum is a quirky fun take on swimming lives & styles - Roger Deakin's Speedos, Jelly shoes, Terry Towelling robes, some great short films & a history of cozzies... dare one say, a veritable lucky dip... on till Aug 17.
