  • Week 124 – July 31st – England v Germany

    England 2 – Germany 1 AET – HT 0-0 – FT 1-1

    Toone (62), Kelly (110) – Magull (79)

    Assists –

    Walsh (62) – Wassmuth (79)

    It finally came home! Great performance by the team and the fans too, made this a wonderful tournament.

    England created history by winning their first major women’s tournament in a dramatic Euro 2022 final against old rivals and eight-time champions Germany at Wembley, in front of a record crowd for a women’s or men’s Euro Final.

    Substitute Chloe Kelly poked home a loose ball from a corner to send the raucous record crowd of 87,192 into a frenzy with ten minutes of extra time remaining.

    She waited for confirmation of the goal before taking off her shirt and waving it around her head, while being lifted by her team-mates in a moment of pure elation.

    Ella Toone had earlier come off the bench to score the opener in normal time before Germany’s Lina Magull set up a nervous ending when she equalised in the 79th minute.

    Victory in the final was capped by England forward Beth Mead picking up the Golden Boot as the tournament’s top scorer with six goals and five assists.

    It’s sad to read on various forums, negative comments when your country actually wins a tournament.  

    Well done LADIES for bringing the trophy HOME!!

  • Week 123 – July 19th – Another record

    On this record hot day, another record was broken.

    Queen Greatest hits has now sold over 7 million copies. 1st album to do that in the UK.  

    They were the best live band ever!!!

  • Week 123 – July 19th – The heat is on

    Well today became the hottest day known in the UK, with the record first broken at 11:51 and kept being broken throughout the day.

    In all 39 weather sites locations broke the previous record set in 2019, with the final highest temperature being recorded at 40.3C, 104F

    Where I live, we hit 38.3C, 101F.

    Fires were close by in Dartford, but thankfully no one lost their lives, thanks to the Fire Brigade.

    Hopefully it will be awhile before we hit those temperatures again.

    Hot day
    The grass is taking a beating from the hot weather, but at least were having a summer this year.

  • Week 120 – June 27th – HM Land Registry’s Property Alert

    Just a reminder, as I have posted this before.

    I would definitely recommend this service, as it’s monitoring that nothing is happening to your properties.

    I was quite shocked to read, that people have lost their homes due to someone selling it and they not knowing.

  • Week 119 – June 23rd – £100 up

    In a recent post, I mentioned that the cost to fill up a car with petrol hit £100.

    Today, I had the pleasure of doing that myself, with a 1 litre of fuel costing £1.91, easily went passed the £100 mark to fill the car up.

    When will this end?

  • Week 117 – June 12th – Ruxley for lunch

    On the way back, we decided to go to Ruxley garden centre for some lunch.

    To refresh myself, I had a strawberry lemonade in this quaint glass.

  • Week 117 – June 10th – Always good to enquire

    Yesterday we went to a coffee shop for a coffee with our reusable cups and you get extra rewards for doing this.

    During the day I checked and noticed I hadn’t been correctly rewarded.

    So I filled in a form and today I had a response from the customer service and was given double points.

    Always good to check and follow up  

  • Week 117 – June 9th – Ridiculous

    For the first time in this country to fuel a petrol car up, cost over £100.

    It’s just ridiculous how everything has gone up in the last few months.

    Something has to give as the cost of living is just spiraling out of control!!
