FIRST THE GOOD.
Rescue
of Thai youngsters.
Best news of the year so far was that all twelve of the Thai boy footballers (aged 11 to 17) and their coach (aged only 25), had escaped from the flooded Tham Luang cave complex where they had been trapped for seventeen days and that the international team of rescuers involved, including many Thai navy seals, were (with the exception of one brave seal who lost his life early on) equally fortunate.
A handful of the lads, who were stateless, may now be given statehood too.
Still hope for humanity, isn't there.
THEN THE WORRYING.
Our
daughter Roz. (In
the only picture I could find of her - at The Warner Bros. Studio
Tour in 2012 - half blocked out by her father's left arm.)
The younger of our two daughters, Roz, has been diagnosed with invasive breast cancer. She has undergone a variety of tests - the results of which the hospital seems to be taking an inordinately long time to release, let alone act upon - and has prepared herself with a thoroughness that has been one of her more positive traits ever since she came of age.
At present we are feeling very old and sadly aware that we have nothing to offer but concern and love.
That's it for the moment.
For chrissake get moving, St. Mary's.
THEN THE BAD:
The
World Cup.
FOOTBALL'S STAYING ABROAD
It's staying abroad
It's staying abroad
Now for chrissake shut up about it.
THEN THE REALITY.
Trump's here.
Aaah, he can wait until next time.
