Optimist addicted to Port Vale FC and England cricket
Vale match frozen off, so used my free afternoon to make a warming apple & ginger cobbler 😋

At least England haven't lost 5-0 as well. Small mercies... #pvfc #Ashes

The rather restricted view from my designated 'safe standing' spot at Luton yesterday. Fortunately was able to move further forward and see three-quarters of the pitch, and a decent Vale performance #pvfc

Struck down by covid so unable to travel to Lincoln today. Feeling grim but provably a lucky escape 🤦🏻‍♀️#pvfc

Terrific night at Soho Place Theatre watching the The Fifth Step. Superb performances from Martin Freeman & Jack Lowden, and a fabulously intiimate venue ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Oliver and Barney have contrasting approaches to coping with the heat today 😸 #catsky #tabby

Fabulous performance of #DearEngland at the Lowry today. Got me right in the feels (& it’s definitely not just for football lovers) 😊

Remembering my late Dad on Father’s Day with one of my favourite pictures of us together. He gave me lots of things including a lifelong love of football, and Port Vale in particular #pvfc 🖤🤍💛

Midlands Mania T20 double header at Edgbaston today. Have to have sport on a Saturday! 🏏😎

The third time in the last ten minutes that I’ve had to open the patio doors to let Barney back in again after he’s gone out through his perfectly good cat flap! 😺 #catsofbluesky #tabby

An interesting interview with my friend & fellow #pvfc fan @aussie-davep.bsky.social about why people support the team that they do.

Worth a listen, and Dave’s book isn’t bad either 😉
Why do we love the #team we love? That's the question behind @ [email protected] book 'Football Fans in their own write'. Have a listen to David speaking with David Astle of the ABC on that question, and how he got #PopeFrancis to contribute to the book: buff.ly/4psfPqY #footballfandom

Pretty sure that’s the first time I’ve ever had an enjoyable afternoon in Walsall. Well done Vale 🤍🖤💛#pvfc #sva

Caught Barney red-handed drinking my tea today. Really hope this is the first time he’s done that 😺 #catsky #tabby #cat
