Agreed, Ulysses is a wonderful read - bears repeated readings too - new stuff every time. White noise is doable alright CrispY But Gravity's Rainbow, jaysus - like other hard cases here, I got out to page 300 or so - mainly because I was on away on a trip and had no other book. I was roundly...

I admire your positivity there Jimmy - I'm more prepared for 3rd place and the drawn out melodrama of the playoffs. The Blackburn result was the killer. Also, if Leeds did go up, could they stay up there?

22.61 for Adeleke at the Mt Sac relays yesterday. That’s another good spin over 200. “hunts out Michael Johnson pic again”

Hey Jimmy, the very best of luck with the Ballintotis 4 tonight. Even though I was near enough to the first entry, I won't be able to run - that injury I picked up late in the Seville program is taking a fierce amount of time to resolve - I even had to stop running for nearly a month there...

I’m surprised how few injuries there were. It was a truly scrotumtightening prospect to be the last free man about to line up for your run, everyone else with fists and feet ready to clock ya. LOL, concrete and tarmac surfaces an’ all.

She could try the double - a pity it hasn't been tried before. Oh, wait...

Some burn out of Adeleke there. Wow

The big house is the North Infirmary

It's on! Great to see the athletics putting on a bit of hype. Thanks to the Virgin deal, we'll get this on our screens here...

Quite the selection dilemma up front - a few lads in form to choose from. Of course, it also depends who turns up. Unfortunately, the famine continues in the middle of the park...

That is one heck of a collapse from Ireland yesterday - tipping along nicely at 93 -2 then they proceed to lose eight wickets for 26 runs. Ouch
