I have looked after the month old grand kid all weekend whilst Mother and Son in law have a weekend away with the two older grand kids who were getting very jealous of the attention shown to the baby. He has been absolutely fine its just like you never forget that waking up at 3 in the morning to feed the baby is not normal. Getting the other half to agree that crying is one way for the baby to exercise his lungs is another matter though. ---

My place has got quite a few superstars that are only earning minimum wage. So the bosses have created a load of new roles for them which pay more. ---

Mrs Gā€™s birthday bash this weekend so I trotted off to International Foods in Portswood today to bag a load of lamb for the bbq. Bit of a queue at the halal counter but I eventually got to the front and explained to Mr Butcher that I was bbq-ing for approx 50 people for Mrsā€™s 50th and so would need a fuckton of meat. Meat bagged and priced I continued winding my way around the aisles, picking up a few other bits and pieces before joining the queue at the checkout. When the guy in front had finished paying he turned around and gave me 2 big trays of baclava saying ā€œFor your good wifeā€™s birthday sir! I hope you have a lovely party.ā€ What an absolute diamond. To be fair he was pretty brown so I was expecting him to scream at me for being an infidel or something like wot the Daily Mail says is true. I almost blubbed. ---

Iā€™ve just come across this thread on Twitter, basically a dad asked if people could say happy birthday to his 9 year old son as a bully at school was making him feel worthless, be prepared to be an emotional wreck after reading the replies.

Definitely not cheerful, but well done Jermain. Other footballers / ā€œcelebritiesā€™ā€ could learn a few things from his example of simple humanity. > **[Defoe visits 'very weak' Bradley Lowery](https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tees-40467110)** > > Bradley's mother said her son was finding breathing difficult "but is fighting it". ---

As a postscript: > **[Bradley was my best friend - Defoe](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/av/football/40885820)** > > Bournemouth and former Sunderland striker Jermain Defoe talks to Football Focus about his friendship with Bradley Lowery, the Black Cats fan who died of cancer aged six in July. Certain other footballers should take a bit of time out and reflect on this.
