Remember to say it first thing in the morning but definitely before noon for good luck. I'm watching the ladies world cup at the moment and the football and goals have been outstanding. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having just googled it I have come to the conclusion that I have been lied to the whole of my life! 🤔 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplesea Posted August 1, 2023 #48207 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Sunny down here, at present, but we have had a couple of showers and heavy rain forecast for this afternoon. I don't know where summer has disappeared to, but it certainly feels like winter has arrived!! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beckett Posted August 1, 2023 #48220 Share Posted August 1, 2023 England's ladies have just scored their 4th goal ( well 5th actually because one was disallowed). I have seen some cracking football over the last few days - no arguing with the ref, no clutching of the face when someone's been kicked in the leg, no cheating. Seems the women don't need the acting lessons! Have good rest-of-the-day everyone. Jane xx 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beckett Posted August 1, 2023 #48223 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Final score: China 1 England 6 and extremely enjoyable. Just a bit of totally useless information for you: Lauren and Reece James both play for Chelsea and are the first ever siblings to both play for England. There must be a very proud mum out there today. Right, enough of my football commentary. I'm off out for another walk with Ted. Forecast for tomorrow is pretty grim re dog walking so extra walks today. Bye for now. Jane xx 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
