Not seeing anything mate?

Have a great trip though.

Cheers Dave, I think the file is probably too big

Just finishing packing for 11 nights in Corralejo,Fuerteventura.Flying from Bristol at 6am and staying here again, weather forecast looking brilliant for the duration with temps hovering around 28/30 ° C.

In the H2H I am playing You Want Some, I will finish with 67 points after my substitute points are added. Before last night Chelsea fixture You Want Some was sitting on 66 points so I needed him to score no points for me to win our match. His only chance of points lay with Raheem Stirling, he come on for the last 25 mins to score a point and got a yellow card to receive a -1 leaving him with zilch points. Unlucky Derek

I'm a fan of RH , good value tasty food in a great location for me 

the portions are huge imho and the quality is far better since they employed Max the chef around four years ago 

it's usually busy every time I visit 

Back in May I ate there 6 evenings out of the 10 we were in Pattaya for. Very tasty food.

Sunrise this morning take from the grounds of the hospice I work for in Penarth, looking over the Bristol Channel.

FAF, Steve and myself have gone from being the two highest scorers last game week to the two lowest scorers this game week

2years on from the start of the build, Everton`s stadium on the banks of the Mersey is looking very impressive.

It's @Binlid I real sorry for this week any other team and he would have won ... 

Hears me thinking nobody cared😀 as Greavsie would have said " funny old game Saints". Well done Steve.

First of what could be a long night, off tomorrow so no excuse to stay sober.

Just treated myself to a portion of Saganaki  for breakfast, it was delish, but not as nice as 12 months ago when I was eating it in Kefalonia.

Cheesy garlic bread with beans for brekky

Proper Job for me and bottle of Burrowhill Cider for the better half at 6%.

Just taken of the sunset from Ilfracombe seafront.

Bottle of Blonde Ambition made by Good Times Ales in North Devon,which coincidentally is where we are for the weekend.

Lost my beloved mother at the beginning of this month, Advanced Dementia and old age were the cause of death, she was 92. Only seems like yesterday when she sat me on the draining board and washed my mouth out with soap and water for saying the word bloody. She had lived on her own since my dad died 30 years ago and in the last 8 years had suffered a series of mini strokes. Neighbours would find her wondering not suitably dressed for the cold weather, one time wearing sandals in the snow. Six years ago we, along with doctors at the hospital decided she needed to be in a Care Home for her own safety. As a result of the strokes she was unable to say anything that we were able to make any sense of though she understood what we were saying to her and would nod or shake her head .Middle of July Mum was not eating so her GP sent her to hospital for some tests to see if there was any underlying issues, they found nothing of concern and the doctor rang me to tell me that we must just send her back to the care home for end of life care and she never ate anything until the day she died 3 weeks later.

Thought the girls played an excellent game, very mature and absorbed the atmosphere for their benefit. I was impressed. 

Now that Lauren James is available, I actually hope she is only brought on later in the final if needed, don't change this team, needs team work, not a superstar to win this world cup, but if needed, she could swing it.

No argument from me their Dave.

Game over, best game of the tournament.

Go Ed you beauty!!

Been watching the game on my TV, did well but the ladies are frustrating at times, trying to play like their male counterparts but just don't have the skill to do it. Watched some footie on my mobile phone, but can't abide the constant high pitch screaming from the fans around the stadium. At times it sounds like being a classroom full of 6 years olds. I will stick to my laptop or TV. 

Funny to see the English being booed from the start, pretty obvious the Aussies don't want the girls to progress. Thought they were playing at Hampden Park.

All my football is watched on my 28" curved monitor using Wizz TV nowadays, unless I am at work, then I will use my mobile.
