Well I’m not a football fan but thank the Lord for tonight’s victory.
The weathers awful, the new government is not instilling much confidence but Gareth Southgate’s team has got through to the final!

Who’d have thought it after the earlier dire performances.

I was watching between my fingers for the last few minutes but it was brilliant.
I said to my GD oh look there’s Ed Sheeran in his England shirt , and there he was.
I didn’t recognise Adele though.

So we have one more match to fill out all the tv schedules. And a load more Wimbledon. The cricket is starting too and then there will be the Olympics.
It's a good job I have some dvds with films on, because there hasn't been anything on tv I have wanted to see for weeks and weeks.
I don't wish anything bad to those who find sport irresistable, just a bit of thought for those of us who don't :-(

Well done England and Watkins ⚽️⚽️⚽️⚽️

Fantastic, my late husbnd would have been jumping up and down all over the house, he was a football fanatic and played football with the old football players of yesteryear back in the early 60's.

Our two sons also played for their City when they were in their early teens.

Everything now crossed for the final.

New government and hopefully England will become the new Euro winner. Let us hope things are now on the up and up.

I must say, although I do enjoy some sport on TV, I thought of trying BBC4 for a change yesterday evening, thinking there might be a nice railway, canal or coastal villages programme.

BBC4 was broadcasting the cricket.

The BBC Proms start on 19 July and run until September.
I am willing to bet that, in common with previous years, no schedules will be disrupted to allow live transmission of any of the concerts.

I know prommers are a minority blah blah and sport is, supposedly, loved by all.

Doesn't everyone have Free view now?

Or the ability to stream anything and everything?

I could understand this 20 + years ago but in today's world I'd not have thought it a big problem
