It was cold this morning, but very sunny. The Gorse Fox decided that though his knee was still a bit swollen, it was giving no pain, so he would play football. As he was getting ready, his phone pinged with a message from the Abbot... indeed a voice from the distant past. He has made contact with the Headmistress ( who is now a Dame) and suggest that we get together with the Mother Superior for a meal sometime in February. Was the Gorse Fox interested? Too right he was. That sounds like a very nice idea.
He headed off to Worthing. He isn't quite sure how it works but somehow two normal cups of coffee seem to multiply in his body and produce several gallons of wee. By the time he got to the sport centre he was fairly uncomfortable.
The bright but low sun made for a challenging game as when you looked across the pitch, all you could see was silhouettes. The Gorse Fox played for the white bibs in the first hour. We won two games and drew one. This meant that ended up on top. In the second hour we played a single game and the Gorse Fox played for the orange-bibs. This was much more relaxed and more fun. We were 2-1 down right up until the last minute or so when the Gorse Fox ghosted in on a free kick and scored the equaliser. His knee seems to have fared well, so he's pleased he took the chance.
