Reading Phil Scraton’s book on Hillsborough. Didn’t think I could get any more angry at the societal failures of 1980s Britain than I already was. I was wrong!

 

Difficult but brilliant read if you haven’t already done so. We truly were considered lower-valued citizens simply because we had a love for the national game.

Wow! That will be a very proud emotional day.

 

I visited Black Watch Corner earlier this year in Belgium.  I have been going to Belgium for the cycling for two decades now and every year we are still visiting new CWG cemeteries to pay our respects as we are cycling about. Sobering to say the least.

Today I learned that Eric Idle was born in Harton Hospital, South Shields. 

Good man is Eric, he liked three of my tweets when I was on twitter, just a bit made up I was when he first did it, but three !!!!!! (One was a pun Gemms, sorry).

I fucking knew it. We are now only WEEKS away from you trying to negotiate that "as seen on the One Show" discount on a hot tub. 

 

Don't tell me you don't like hot tubs. Captain Sir Tom's family wouldn't have dreamt of having a spa pool a few years ago either....
