Reaction

One of England's best-loved TV sports pundits is a fellow called Ian Wright. He played for Crystal Palace, Arsenal and England. Earlier today, via live TV coverage, he was watching his beloved Arsenal play Bournemouth in The Premier League. It had been a surprisingly tough match for table topping Arsenal but in almost the last minute of the game, substitute Reiss Nelson came up with the winning goal. This was Wrightie's reaction:-

To those who are not passionate about football, the reaction may seem puzzling but I get it completely. I feel just the same way when my beloved Hull City achieve victory in the last minute of a game. It is quite orgasmic and briefly you forget yourself - such is the explosion of joy.

Froth and Rubbish

Days are like Pants

Up one day, down the next.

I’m not down today, just a bit fazed.

There needs a lightness of touch from somewhere

Something frothy and perky.

Unfortunately there’s not much froth and perk about today.

Apart from Roger who has just learned how to masturbate

Anyhow I went to the TCA members meeting which reminded me I have a lot to do

And the day is cold and grey and unappealing as it was yesterday.

I’ve arranged to meet my sister to see the Lily Allen rom com What’s love got to do with it ?

Which will be the frothy bit of rubbish I need today.
