Six on Saturday – Inbetweeny

Here we are in Inbetweeny Time, a time which is simultaneously “after” and “before”. It is a time of national confusion.

Another Six on Saturday, which for me has been the most discombobulating week since lockdown.  I can feel tension in the air.  Not in this house, luckily.  Not often anyway.  Strife is almost unheard of in the Six on Saturday Brotherhood, have a look at Our Guru The Most Properly Master of all Thing Prop’sContinue reading “Six on Saturday – A Catalogue of Errors”
