He’s confident, for sure. But that’s ok, right?
A bit. Isn’t that sort of thing encouraged these days?

Been ill apparently. So all fair enough.
For sure. And admirable in many ways.
I always find the Arlott drinking stuff a bit sad. I fear it was grief related. Which sheds a different light on it, no?
Panic when the required rate rises above 4 an over. Great days. Maybe Atherton and Hussain should take up pipe smoking?

Yeah, it's such a mess.
Not sure we are. It's for £.
