Just over 20 years since an overnight coach journey to Spa and the chance to stand underneath my sporting hero (with my old Kodak Advantix camera) as he appeared on the roof to celebrate his 7th World Championship. Keep fighting Michael Schumacher, Scuderia Ferrari HP.

God knows if there is any good that can come from ‘X’ these days let it be an applause for Andy Robus on Saturday. This news hit us all so hard this week. He’s up there now with a pint of Harvey’s Sussex Best, having a chat with any Rams fan he can find - and find them he shall.

Well done Derby Museums and Derby CAMRA - Derby CAMRA Beer Festival was excellent. Great venue, and great selection of beers.

This now becomes my all-time favourite New Statesman piece and the only one ever to have caused me to laugh out loud on the Northern Line…

An optimum visitor experience with pleasing range of audio-visual stimulation, as Ron might have said. Mika Häkkinen’s McLaren still looks fast. Just need a Matt Bishop 🏳️‍🌈 🏁 editorial and Peter Windsor race report and I’d be transported back 25 years.

Either we’ve got a really exciting new manager lined up and ready to go right away, or this is a clown show for the ages from #DCFC. Let’s see. I struggle to see another option having let Warne do yesterday’s press conference and with tomorrow’s match so close.

Strong Channel 9 News vibes on the M5 today, charlie higson. Meteorologicos!

All player interviews should take place in front of jubilant away supporters. Hope Dominic Dietrich and Ed Dawes enjoyed that as much as we did! What a day.

The Derbyshire Wildlife Trust reserve at Willington Wetlands was a joy today - over 20 different species of bird enjoying the spring sunshine.

Leisurely morning catching up with the latest RSPB magazine and Ben Andrew superb photos, and wander into Downing College to find this waiting for me. Clearly meant to be!
