The beautiful game

"I laughed, I cried..."

I am recovering very slowly from what was possibly the greatest night of my life so far (excluding the Her Majesty Lord Shirley Bassey night of wonders).

I have to say now that last night was emotionally-draining, spiritually-uplifting, serendipitous and in defiance of all the odds. I laughed. I cried. I trembled with delight.

Yes, dear readers, I - single-handedly - rediscovered my favourite game.

You know, I bet that louche rogue Beattie would probably have enjoyed it too if he'd have been there.
