Skipping down memory lane

Where did it all go wrong? Have just been flicking through my old school reports this morning over (yet more) porridge. Matt needs them for the new website for the show. Still got most of mine from secondary school and loads from junior school.

July 1978 at Burton Church of England School and Jonathan Cuthill of Class 5 was making very good progress in english reading, had careful, accurate work in maths and his presentation was good.

30 years later I can't add up, have trouble getting my words out and haven't picked up a book for weeks. Talking of which have found Lance Armstrong's autobiography which I'd forgotten I had so will get stuck into that this week. Will work on the maths later.

Message from Cuthill HQ in Dorchester - old photos have been dispatched to the beeb for the new website. The embarrassment continues. However I am a scientific marvel - appear to have completely shaken off my man flu.

Porridge is the wonder drug. TP (Tristan Pascoe) has just been recounting the best of his 5 goals he allegedly scored last night. Even Johnny Cantor put in an appearance - apparently providing the cross that he volleyed so cleanly into the top right hand corner.

Have just talked to Marcus White from the newsroom who also plays and he can't recall the magic moment or indeed any of the 4 previous. They're all talk these Saints supporters. Back to the gym tonight. Really must paint the kitchen ceiling.
