Named at 13 for Canterbury this week. It wasn't iced at the end of the game last week so was probably minor first game back niggle.

I'm enjoying playing touch again down here in Kent. Off to play in a minute, actually. It's a weird one because our games are notionally under the 02 Touch umbrella but the sessions seems to be run by England Touch, which works with the RFL (as well as the RFU) and is affiliated to the Federation of International Touch, which in turn is affiliated to the NRL via Touch Football Australia. Also, I notice Wigan Touch Warriors are one of the leading touch sides in England. So touch is not a totally union thing here.

Didn`t like Darklands much when it was released. Liked it a lot subsequently. One of those albums that aged well.

Ronnie James Dio deserves far more credit than he ever got. Chris Cornell`s vocal style was very similar. And Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, etc, all owed a lot to the sound of Rainbow Rising and Long Live Rock `n` Roll.

Heard the 'booming bittern' on a walk down the river to Fairburn Ings. Mrs S fascinated by the guano covering the trees being used by the nesting cormorants. Then when back home wondered why the songbirds were getting all excited and a chaffinch was hiding behind the feeders but not feeding before noticing the male and female sparrowhawks patrolling the sky - the male came zooming along the hedge at the bottom of the garden at one point.
