Weeknote, Sunday 28th June

Hot week. We never got above 29 so it was bad but not as bad as South of England and Europe…anyone saying climate change isn’t a thing needs to be muted and ignored forever. Idiots. Lots of frustration around work and life at the moment, and it’s showing up in the usual health impacts that I’ll need to manage…been a long weekend. Have binged half of the last season of The Bear – will miss spending time in this world, something about it just clicks for me. Ahhhh….the World Cup. All the usual cliches apply particularly it’s the hope that kill’s you. Steve Clarke and the team did so well to qualify directly, rode their luck and then took the opportunity against the Danish at Hampden last year. Despite saying he and the team had learned lessons from the last two Euro’s, the team fell at the first hurdle yet again. Going into the Brazil game the focus was on sneaking a draw or keeping it to a 1-0 defeat. Ha. Ropey defence coupled with individual howling mistakes in the Moroccan and Brazil…
