Had a walk around Thruscross reservoir this morning. Never seen it so low. We did the usual “good morning” to folk passing in the other direction. Did a huge double take when I realised one of them was an old school friend I’d not seen since 1989!

Being a season ticket holder at City, it was a toss up whether I went to that game or go to Headingley for day 3 against Worcestershire. I glad I went to the latter and see a bit of history!

Fun afternoon at Wincanton races today. We had a 1st, 2nd and a 3rd to smash the bookies and come away with a profit of £3.20. Get in!

Excellent evening of silliness on Tuesday at the Victoria Theatre in Halifax, watching Alex Horne and the Horne Section. 👍

Didn’t think it would happen today with the light fading and the run rate slowing after Lyth went for a brilliant 147, but got there in the end and Yorkshire back in Div 1. Absolutely marvellous!

My online motor racing adventure continues a pace. Absolutely loving it, and my McLaren 720s Evo has just had a fresh coat of paint!

Very (I can’t stress how very) early train to London today for a conference at the ExCel. First time here since being involved in the Nightingale conversation. Good to see being used for more conventional purposes. The Sunborn hotel next door looks tempting for an afternoon nap.

Excellent days walking in Madeira today until some idiot left his mobile on the tour bus. Thankfully reunited later so I can bring you a few photos!
