Saturday
was a day of football and music - two of the most wondrous things to exist on this
spinning orb of madness, upon which we all live. I got up and donned my nylon to become ‘Manger Man,’ to take my son’s U9s team
for training. Next up, we were off to
Champion Hill to watch Dulwich Hamlet concede in injury time to draw 2-2 with
Hampton and Richmond Borough. Then, a short drive home took us back to see Villa
regain some pride and play very well at Anfield, to pull off a surprise, with
another 2-2 scoreline against Liverpool. Bosh. To round off proceedings was Craig Charles on 6Music with a proper good show of soul and funk. When he played Right On For The Darkness by Curtis
Mayfield, (See HSD Tune,) the first lines - when Curtis sings “I am blind and I cannot see” - are so overpoweringly beautiful, that
I had to tweet in to the show. ‘Curtis Mayfield’s voice just melts your soul’ I
tweeted and less than two minutes later, Craig Charles read my tweet out on
air. Social media live in action!! A great end to an action packed day...
