Luvit BarryW..you cheeky monkeee. Half the nation is considering slitting their wrists!
Indeed it was a lovely day though. Looks like you were well organised there with your Pimms to counteract the 30 degree heat. Early on I had a motorcycle ride to blow of the cobwebs and to wallow in the fantastic heatwave while zapping along at a steady 30mph. (Speed reference in case any constable of the law is looking in!)
After that and the lightest of light lunches, I nipped over to Market Sq to see how the football was going down with the crowd. Have to admit I expected a bigger crowd than was there...The Mercury had suggested thousands but no...low hundreds, but nevertheless quite good I suppose.
The grim faces in the frontpage pictures speak for themselves as to the mood.
Later then, after I did the frontpage as near "live" as possible, I watched Argentina demolish Mexico on TV.
