I bumped into Fergal in Chingford. It turns out he has a think about the water quality in streams and rivers, and was checking out the stream that runs behind the estate which has been built where the dog stadium used to be. Since then I've followed him on Twitter, and he's proper mad for it.

He’s a keen walker, and rivers are a favourite of his.

I played football with Tommy back in the early 90's before he was famous. He had an Alsatian called Major who used to be tied to the back of the goal Tommy was playing in - he had huge bollocks as well (the dog).

I played with him too. And his brother at OPs. I remember Major well

Yup. Just worked out who you are. I played a few times for you as well (badly).

Quite a few OPs at the Os. I sit with 4 of them and we had a zoom call last week with all of us and Francis. I was a poor player but a great captain

Back in the later 70s, I graciously let a running-at-full-pelt Glenda Jackson cross the road in front on me at a crossing outside Parliament.

I actually asked for a photo with him because my missus loves the show (and I do tbf) and asked him if he was enjoying himself, to which he replied that he was having the time of his life. Swigged his Stella, and wandered off on his own into the 35 degree heat. What a day.
