The Lockdown Diary - DAY 75

A quiet day about the house today. The 2013 Welsh Cup Final was being shown on Youtube/Facebook (so Youtube, then) in its entirety so there were two hours of my life I relived in full, the chant of "Cheerio, cheerio, cheerio' still making me laugh when Parky skips past the already-booked full back who takes him out and I predicted the outcome of the free kick to my eight-year-old son to an unrelenting degree of accuracy.

I caught on BBC2 the back end of the '84 Lord's Test where England set a big 300 and failed to take a wicket via a bowler as Gordon Greenidge leathered England's finest and Derek Pringle to make a huge target 'a doddle' as Richie Benaud said. Never hurts to see that lithe, whippy action of Malcolm Marshall again in particular.

And I got to see it again briefly later as Fire in Babylon was reprised on Sky Documentaries. Epic telly all round.

Made a paella tribute and some coffee cupcakes later on as well. Good day.
