I always watch the Last Night of the Proms......

Pro's
Wonderful music, patriotic, good humoured and 'feel good', I love it

Cons
You can bet your bottom dollar that the day after is cold, damp and Summer ends !

On the other matter, you will note I have remained completely neutral and said nothing about the programme !
I did however write a Blog article a long time ago suggesting they had a Seniors version. these young ones seem to think they are the only ones who get up to no good!!

Vive la difference!


OMG! Richard you won't believe this, but right now on BBc1 there is a programme on called 'The Young Ones' about a group of 60 something plus celebrities living in a 1970's house! Including Dickie Bird (a crickety type person apparently) and Lionel Blair!! You HAVE to watch it!! Your BB dreams have just come true

we watched it last night with my old mum(93) who would put all of them to shame physically and mentally. She refused to have it on tonight as she said they were all too depressing !!!!!!!!!!!

Just watched the two programs.
Never give up doing things........ no matter how old. I bet it made your Mum depressed. Made me as well.

Ah, I missed it I'm afraid but did see it was on. I shall catch up tomorrow on iPlayer, sounds good!

Dicky Bird, the Yorkshire Umpiring Legend, surely you've heard of him - a real character. Met him a couple of times, completely scatty, very nervous but a great Cricket Man.

Will watch it for certain.

Thanks, Richard

Dickie Bird was a legend as a cricket umpire. I remember his last Test Match, it was very moving....must have been back mid 90's but I am sure you will know Richard. My late husband was a cricket fanatic both playing and watching. I wouldn't like to add up how many cricket teas I made over the years.

I saw last night's - missed the first one. It really does go to show that if you don't use it, you lose it. Dickie Bird and Lionel Blair seemed in quite good shape - I enjoyed Dickie showing Derek how to do his exercises!

I know the results are not in yet, but I bet it will show that if you keep pushing yourself it will be well worthwhile - I mean, who wants to be asking someone else to put your socks on?
