Been to see my oncologist this morning, apparently I've got 2 more sets of treatments, not got the last one until the end of September 👍

Cheers @yeti-dog, Thanks, my treatment is going well 🤞 I have my last session of immunotherapy on 6th August (it's a 2 year course) and after that I'll have 3 monthly scans. When (and it will) the tumour in my lung starts growing again (may be anything from 6 months to 5 years, seemingly) I will then go on a course of chemotherapy or radiotherapy. I'm fairly active still, get tired easily and am a lot shorter of breath but if you'd have given me this 2 years ago when I was diagnosed, I'd have taken it! I hope your surgery is successful and you have a good support network around you. I spent a lot of time researching all the various aspects of being a cancer sufferer, Macmillan are a great resource for this and have given me lots of useful information. I live alone and have great neighbours but all my family are still in Lancashire so I have to be pretty independent which suits me as I enjoy my own company 😁 My biggest driving force is having my dogs, they give me a reason to get up in the mornings and a positive start to the day. Positive mental attitude is a big factor, I go into my oncology and treatment sessions with a cheery attitude, there's always people worse off, quite often a lot younger. I don't know how long you've been diagnosed but when you visit hospital regularly (I'm there a couple of times every month) it becomes less daunting and more "routine". Thanks for asking about my health, it's been quite cathartic putting my thoughts down in writing 👍 Good luck with your treatment, the forthcoming surgery means you're moving forward 👏 Once again, best wishes.

That should be The Coalition's strapline 👏

I think somebody has tried with the kits but they've failed but not a bad attempt by this regime. Faint praise and all that.

They'll look into it.

Dubois is the new Delboy.

If that's not going to be in the minutes, surely you can divulge?

I watched quite a lot of it because it's football, the alternative being the Women's Euros. Chelsea players have 3 weeks off before home friendlies against Bayern Leverkusen and AC Milan on 8th and 10th of August then their first league game against Palace on the 17th.

This is why the 5 day game is the essence of cricket (Baz Ball excluded). 3 fantastic tests 💯

Bit cringy at Dumpdale 😕

Why does Archer wear those chains when he's playing?

And nice to see Mbappe and Bellingham sulking 😁

I'm guessing that Val wants to keep Cal, surely he'd be pushing for both sides to come to an agreement?

Tupac - Life Goes On

Perhaps his contract ran till end of June as well? In which case they are still in time. I agree with you though, I was just playing Pashas Advocate.

No ticket collection 😁 I saw Queen at KGH as support band to Mott The Hoople. 1972/3?

R.I.P. Condolences to the family. A tragic loss.

Any port in a storm. VI was unemployed for some time, Whatever amount (within reason) he is being paid, he'll stick it out for a couple of seasons I expect. If he bombs, any scenario is possible. If he does well (no barometer, sorry), his professionalism will be tested, that's for sure, whether he quits or is (possibly) "poached" as was Eustace, will determine the ambition of both himself and the club. Both may be totally different.

Had to look it up but yes!

Robert Knight - Everlasting Love

3-2

The new Chris Samba? 🤞

I thought Elliot was partially at fault for their goal, instead off playing off the players legs for a throw or pushing it up the line, he tried to flick it over him and lost possession. Minor gripe, man of the match imo and you could see his class when he was with us.

Fantastic cricket! Had a bit of everything except controversy 👏
