Celebrate the best you can in health and safety.

Was wondering when someone would get around to nominating Songs in the Key of Life. Seventy-six was a pretty good year. One of prog rock's greatest albums was released that year (Trick of the Tail), as was Radio Ethiopia by Patti Smith, Wired by Jeff Beck, and Shake Some Action by the masters of pur...

But I'll never get a better chance to nominate a truly great voice as this year saw her masterwork. The coming together of a stunning voice and a massively under rated songwriter Linda Ronstadt 'Hasten Down The Wind' I expect only my votes to score but it needs to be at least nominated Love this al...

Good thinking by the football authorities

Good thinking by Bielsa

Too much time on his hands by Phillips

Great, succinct comment.

A great manager will take his players and beat yours, then take your players and beat his. Bielsa is a great manager.

That being said, I was at the Huddersfield game, and anyone who saw that game and came away from it saying Huddersfield are better at most positions is just plain daft.

What's wrong with finishing up the current season whenever it becomes possible to do so? If we can push this season back, certainly we can push the 2020 - 2021 season back, too. We could be back on track by September of 2021 quite easily.

I struggle with Le Carre, I'm not intelligent enough to read him...

I don't believe that for a minute. Just not your cup of tea.

Le Carre has elevated his art form. Far more than just a thriller writer; he has absolutely captured the zeitgeist of the cold war. His work will live far beyond our time. Don't get much time to read fiction as my job requires that I read a lot of academic papers, but I recently discovered an Englis...

Have to say that when I was in England I quickly came to the conclusion that, not only is the beer/ale much better than in the US, it's served at the proper temperature. American beers are served so cold that whatever flavor it may have had gets lost. English cask ales are fantastic. I miss them mor...

My classes have all moved on line, so I got my lectures recorded and posted and am now sitting around waiting for the students to upload their assignments to the course web sites.

I think. perhaps, I shall bake a pie.

Cherry or pumpkin?

Kinks for me (of course).

When your budgets and investments are predicated on an income of X number of pounds per month, being asked to take 0.3 * X is a serious imposition, regardless of how large X is. I applaud the players being willing to take the pay cut. It's damned generous of them. I would be less sympathetic if the ...

Hope all goes well for you today, Norm.
