It was Hull City's last home game of the season today. We were playing Welsh club Swansea City. Clint drove me the seventy miles over there and I met up with my old friend Tony and also Carl who is another long time Tigers supporter. He met Tony through nursing thirty years ago and he's a nice lad - if lads can be 59 years old!
There was a crowd of over 23,000. We watched a pretty enjoyable game in which Turkish forward player Ozan Tufan scored first for Hull after three minutes. That goal was cancelled out by Swansea's Luke Cundle just before half time.
After a worrying start to the season, my club are finishing it in pleasing style - settled comfortably in mid-table. We look forward to next season with some hope.

Back home, in relation to my hotmail account, Microsoft sent me a concerning message. They warned me that I had exceeded my storage limit of 5GB and if I didn't do something about it I would be blocked from sending and receiving further messages.
I investigated my "Sent Items" folder and discovered that I had hundreds of stored e-mails with photographs or documents attached. They went right back to 2007.
I made a start on reducing the number of stored historical e-mails, deleting and deleting but the trouble was I kept opening a lot of these old e-mails and getting rather distracted. They brought back plenty of memories and there were various old e-mails and attached images I decided to keep.
Still. I have made a good start on this housekeeping and have managed to get back way below my 5GB capacity. In future I plan to be more watchful and possibly more ruthless about what is stored. Photographs take up much more storage room than you might think .
I don't resent Microsoft's storage rules at all. They have given me and millions of others an incredible free e-mail service thus far. I could pay an annual fee for extra storage but I would rather continue the deletion process so that I am in better control of messages in storage.
As I am no technophile or computer nerd, I have no idea what either One Drive or "The Cloud" actually is but I don't like the sound of them and have tried to avoid using them though it seems not entirely successfully. By accident rather than design some of my messaging has gone there.
