    [Football] Middle England Derby.

    To be fair to Leicester, they seem to have dispensed of that goal music. Their fans must be delighted. In fact, thinking about it, goal music is dying away, isn't it. Do Palace still have it?

    I'm looking forward to this year's Criterium in Quillan, the little town in the Pyrenees where I spend several months of each year. Sagan's last road race! https://www.quillan.fr/criterium/

    [Music] Music performances that bring a tear to your eye.

    This song gets me. It's message - that we are all so insignificant in the grand scheme of things, but so important in our tiny circle of relevance - is lovely. Powerful.

    Blimey, that's got me going. I am an emotional wreck right now, I think.

    [Music] Music performances that bring a tear to your eye.

    When I drove Mrs. Mahone from our wedding to the reception in the summer of 1995, I had set this song up to play on the cassette played in the car. To this day it still makes me weep. You should have seen the state of me when they played it at Latitude last Friday. 😭

    [Music] Albums you thought were legendary but no longer think so....

    I doubt he’s referring to that as it’s on a different album - No More Heroes.

    [Humour] Make a three sentence synopsis of a subject - new NSC quiz

    1901 you say? Can’t thing of anything with 1901 as a start date. Icelandic psych music?

    [Misc] Hippodrome open. Two days only.

    It's being restored - it's miles away from having been restored. I spoke to some of the people in charge there - they are waiting on planning permission for the restoration to be finalised. The application has been in for over 18 months, and they shrugged and laughed when I asked them how much...

    [Misc] Hippodrome open. Two days only.

    We went in this morning. The potential for a superb gig venue/theatre is massive. What a beautiful space it is.

    [News] Royal Albion hotel on fire, again.

    Hope everyone is okay. A little inland, I live near the Level, you wouldn’t know anything was happening, bar the sirens earlier.

    [Football] Original football ground names.

    Lancaster City play at The Giant Axe. That's up there with The Dripping Pan in my books.

    [Albion] BHA Bucket Hat

    I bought one with Albion 1901 on the top and wore it at Glastonbury. It got lots of admiration - @jackalbion spotted it from a distance. It's a glorious hat.

    [Cricket] Your Test Team from the last 20 years

    Yes, I ignored Jofra, Jones and Mark Wood who are/were all, potentially, amongst our greatest fast bowlers - if only bowling very fast didn't mess you up.

    [Cricket] Your Test Team from the last 20 years

    I knew Buttler would be controversial, and considered Prior. But I love the way Buttler plays, so he got the nod. Thorpe for Bell I could countenance (I forgot Thorpe was still playing in 2003), but Trott? No chance in my eyes. He never filled me with confidence and I never warmed to him.

    [Cricket] Your Test Team from the last 20 years

    Comparisons between the teams of 2005 and today got me thinking - who would be in the team if players across these eras were available? My team: Alastair Cook (c) Marcus Trescothick Ian Bell Joe Root Kevin Pietersen Freddie Flintoff Ben Stokes Jos Buttler (wk) Graeme Swann Stuart Broad Jimmy...

    [Humour] Brighton comedy garden

    I went on Friday, a gloriously sunny evening. It was great fun, but as @Wrong-Direction said, the seating rows were incredibly close together. We turned up early, wanting to enjoy beers from the bar in the park. Small cans of Meantime IPA were £5.50 with no draft options. We wished we had...

    [Other Sport] 2023 Tour de France

    Yes. I suspect that I, being 6'3" and over 15 stone, would struggle to hold his wheel.
