Random Irritations

[Papas1982]

I measure it simply on how I saw them. Best didnt play for a high profile national team but just remembering the skills of Best and Maradona I'd say little to choose one from the other, they were imo both better than Cruyff. Defenders are certainly quicker in the modern era, but back then they were brutal and Best and Maradona were too good for them just as Messi is today. Le Tiss, I believe was hugely under rated - not a Best, Maradona, Messi etc etc but a wonderful player and goalscorer.

Can’t argue with that. ?

Pele said George Best was the best. That's good enough for me.

Bobby Charlton said it was Duncan Edwards and Charlton had played with George Best and Bobby Moore and against Pele, Beckenbauer et al!

Clocks going back tonight ................................. but I still have to be up early tomorrow.

Clocks going back full stop. The EU are likely to stop this practice after they are put forward next time. Hopefully we will follow suit.

Me and the clocks changing. I have an overriding urge to change them earlier and earlier each time. Drives my wife nuts. My compromise today was to wait until 5pm, or 4pm ahem, and leave the living room clock until bedtime.

Since I'm on 12 mornings tomorrow and will be getting up at 4-10 am I am more than happy for the extra hour....

On the other hand very glad I'm not on 12 hour nights tonight....

I moved to the outside lane of a dual carriageway to let some cars join on from a slip road on the left. Then found it difficult to get back in time for my [ next] turn off half a mile on.

I don't mind the early start today but the hour long stare when they think it's tea time is a different story!
