Byron, Shelley and Keats

BBC SPORT | Other Sport… | Horse Racing | Yeats and Fallon take Gold Cup

Royal Oak Captain’s Day

Played at Bushey Hall for the Captain’s Day. Won the team event in the morning with Mark Breedon and Mark Denyer and got Longest Drive in the afternoon. Should’ve won the overall but blobbed the 17th to throw it away.

Somehow we’ve qualified.

BBC SPORT | Football | World Cup 2006 | England 2-0 Trinidad & Tobago

That just about sums it up.

BBC NEWS | UK | Fans cheer England to opening win
