Thanks Gummy, ever so kind of you.
Actually you get me worried when you are too kind, I start to think “What’s this fella up to now I wonder”
I never could take to the football myself RJ, much as I tried as a boy i could never like it or master it, the only time I’d be picked for a game on the street was when they were desperately short of a ‘man’ to make up a team.
Some years ago while on a visit to my brother in London he had a ‘surprise’ for me when I got there, a seemingly much prized ticket to see Queens Park Rangers play Sheffield Wed. at Loftus Road, he was nuts about Football and QPR.
I was mortified all the way through the match and thought it would never end, of course the hardest part of the whole thing was pretending I was having a great time, we were very close and the last thing I would do is hurt his feelings, never was at another football match before nor since.
