Things That Gladden The Heart

Tonight's the first time ive really seen her properly and not sweaty playing hockey. But my word absolutely gorgeous and seems to have a fun personality to...
Speaking from experience she is a royal pain and such ? end - enjoyed umpiring her. Just think of the mouthiest footballer on a pitch back chatting - her but twice as bad

Maybe she just didn't like you??‍♂️
A high end competitive sportswoman back chatting during a match, don't see the issue at all.

More interested in her off field persona than on it, as we can all be a pain in arse during competition.

like to all the umpires including the international ones , she came from a football background and in hockey you don’t backchat , they have the same respect for officials as you see in rugby - she at times got a red card and 3 months ban for things she said and did.

not much nicer off the pitch as well - she just isn’t a nice person but project a good persona for the public. Wasn’t very well liked in GB set up

Just an insight to a away from public persona

Did someone not get a follow back on Twitter???
Do you have any links to back up your thoughts Phil?
 
More Sunday League scenes in our cup tie this morning. Went 2-1 down with 5 mins left, deep in injury time our keeper bundles it over the line from a set piece to equalise, then saves three of the penalty kicks to send us through! What a guy. :LOL:
 
In fairly early in remission following treatment for BC - Mrs Hogie had her annual check-up this morning. Headed off worrying about lower back pain (being a BC Nurse Specialist she knows what that can mean better than most). Usual annual checks were done and consultant says all OK - and that the back pain is nothing to worry about (just a fact of ageing-life)
 
My son (his job is in event management) had a seven date tour in February confirmed yesterday and another seven date tour advised but tbc for March. Won’t make him rich but will cover his outgoings. And has been told there should be further such for April and with any luck May and onward. Thank the Lord But not counting my blessings too far ahead ?
