"GOAL!" shouted Harry Maguire's fans last season...
"GAOL!" shout his detractors now. And yes, he's guilty
as charged - but at least it's a suspended sentence. Lousy
defence, I gather. But that's always been England's
problem, right?...

Calendar Cliff, 2021? Colander Cliff, more like - he looks
drained. (It's what personal drainers do, right?)

It's September 1! Bring out the sweaters and long trousers!
(An autumnatic reaction, as far as I'm concerned). I love

Who doesn't like a 3-liner? (Quite a few of you don't, apparently.) Well, I'll have you know that many a critic has said of my work "at least it's in English" - and as for the great Stephen Fry, he once said of me "Vincent who?" Let's just say I supply the litter to the litterati [sic - but only at times] - ie: I write rubbish. But rubbish mostly inspired by the HAIKU, the 17th Century Japanese verse form consisting of 3 lines and 17 (5-7-5) syllables. (WARNING: flash photography and limericks)
