So fresh issues for me to deal with as her carer, and, although I'll keep an eye on the thread when I can, I shan't be posting for a little while.
I will be back though!
For the record, I'm one of the older generation who's perfectly happy to see a bit of team news, hear a couple of interviews, take in a little pre-match punditry from the experts for a few minutes, and then just watch the game!

But I do realise, of course, it's a different world out there now and, given my own background, I'm obviously all in favour of some banter!
Football takes itself far too seriously sometimes.
I'm afraid, though, and I'm sure I'm not alone in this, I just don't have the desire or the incentive to devote up to what appears to have been around FOUR hours to ONE game in one evening.
See you all soon!”

Very best wishes to both of you.
Hope to see you posting again soon, Peter.
