4 of us (Accy Clarets) in Teruel, Spain, visiting the 30+ people who visited Burnley last season for the Palace game. Today they're wearing their Burnley shirts and tomorrow we're going to watch Teruel away.

Sounds amazing Leisure

Going for a few drinks in Liverpool this afternoon then seeing Texas tonight.

Nipped out with my daughter to Sainsbury’s and now being forced to watch her do tricks on the trampoline (she’s 6). My lad is out selling sweet cones for his cubs charity challenge.

Snetterton race track tomorrow with the lad for the USA 300!

It's a 3 and half hour journey and no Wetherspoons stop enroute!

Had a bit of a leg-stretch this am- just a meandering 1.5 miler to the local convenience store.

Normally would've gone down to see Eastleigh v Tamworth in the National League this aft but I'm off to a gig this evening out-of-town and wouldnt make it back in time so it'll be TV sport (racing from Ascot, cricket, and the start of the England game) before getting myself off to the rail station for a quick ride to Winchester,
Going to see Peter Bruntnell band https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=525a5Gj ... rBruntnell my second gig this week. (lots of music choices around here now that summer festivals have finished).

Brilliant Pete, have a cracker

Up early this AM for a walk. Trying to get some feeling back in my legs after doing Slieve Donard on Monday. La Vuelta, from now to conclusion.
Ireland v England, on the box, at tea time.
My niece and hubby have a debut gig tonight in Cobh. 90s stuff as Bill Clinton & the Interns.
They never let you down.
All in all a grand day.

Trying to watch a bit of the test match whilst attempting to manage 3 bonkers Grandkids who are all under 5.

I think one of them has just eaten my cat.

Being given the run around by this fella, he’s a guide dog puppy in training. He’s here for ten days to give his foster parents a break. He’s a nine month old bundle of energy.

Hawking up big lumps of phlegm, coughing, sweating like a pig and permanently knackered.

Covid, apparently.

Grand.

Took the nephew to Clitheroe this morning for his first match of the season, then went to club shop and treated my self to a new hoodie, after finding a gift card in the back of my wallet I’d forgotten had.

Now putting my team together for our first game of the season tomorrow morning

On a yacht off Hvar having a gin and tonic

Oh, you're pushing it fine to make it from Liverpool all the way to Texas in one evening ;P

Have a great evening & hope Sharleen's voice is in good form

Just been into town with my daughter
She talked me into getting her a new T-shirt with Stitch on it

Saw some random woman in town with a parrot…

Thanks for your concern Rowls and CT.

Central serous retinopathy apparently. Widely believed to be brought on apparently
by stress or the use of steroids. Slight visual impairment which tends to correct itself.

Came in useful for last season's offering !!!

Watching Stanley

Need points

Lots of youtube listening to music old and new.

Having an early night( 6 hours ahead of UK). Recovering from a nasty fall which left me with a badly cut and bruised foot and a very painful knee…old age eh?!

Sutton United 0 pilgrims 1.

About right. Sutton playing out from the back kompany style and have come close to conceding from it unnecessarily more than once.

Going for my second jab for shingles, first one 6 months ago.

Quick trip to the surgery this morning for the new RSV vaccine, now watching the rain pouring down, following the cricket and working on a Powerpoint for some training I am doing for a charity next Saturday morning.

Take care & hope it clears up soon.

Watching Thornton Cleveleys v. Droylsden in the NWCL. Currently 2-1 to Thornton. Paul Stewart amongst the spectators.

I reckon if they dug him up he’d still get a game.

Garforth lost 1-0 to Wythenshaw after a soft header was misjudged by the keeper. Terrible game

Mooching around Sorrento.

Recovering from my walk up Scafell Pike yesterday from Wasdale. Fantastic day, very strong wind, especially round the summit, pint and food on the way back.
Today, sorting stuff out before my hols to Frigiliana, Spain early tomorrow morning.

Some lovely bars and restaurants down the "drains"

Watched some "earthy football" today. My local side Market Harborough (two successive promotions ) now in Southern League Premier Division Central, 5 minute walk from home and £6 as a concession. Numerous bone crunching tackles, full on aerial battles and a red card. Harborough lost to Redditch 3-1 and I stood next to the Harborough chairman who I know. Seems a million miles away from watching us in the Championship, but its the beauty of football in front of a 400 crowd

Went to Westminster to capture images of the bakery where Mrs Croydon's mother used to work in the 60's. This was where she met Mrs Croydon's dad who was working at New Scotland Yard nearby

She has dementia so triggers from the distant past are very useful in unlocking aspects of her former self

The bakery has changed a bit but the memories were still there
