A really nice moment here.

Bosnia and Herzegovina fans get caught up in the middle of Canada’s March to the Match.

And they’re being met with high fives as they pass through the sea of red.

@jamesdmorris Kirstie Allsopp? 🤷‍♂️

@dobssi Ah yes. Think of all the signal and track monitoring that could be done remotely/automatically on a dedicated system.

@lizjedwards Glad to see he's finally using his loaf.

@FreeNow_UK I was hugely over charged on a journey yesterday morning. Immediately contacted via the app and was told I’d get a response within 24 hours. I’ve heard nothing. Please respond.

@dobssi I loved Malmö - it’s a vibrant and pretty city with a safe and positive vibe. I’d recommend it to anyone, lots to see and do (great food scene)

Everyone should read this exceptionally brave and powerful piece if they can:

The man who raped me was arrested at the scene. Why did it take years to go to trial?

@dobssi Before Covid we probably never gave much thought to people having colds all around us in autumn/winter, as it was the norm. Covid raised awareness and made everyone fearful.

Good to see you running more and faster…

@dobssi @HLTCO You seem to like playing us, as we like playing Villa…

@dobssi Loved the flyknit uppers!

@PaulTonkinson @holland_tom @SimonMagus Scientifically we are classed as a ‘great ape’. I think he means atheists can agree we are a type of ape, with dna shared with chimpanzees, say, from 100,000 years ago, but can’t see that our culture (laws/morality) owes anything to our 2,000 years of bible-based Christianity
