that I wasn't going to be able to have any kind of personal interaction with this game, this match, Millwall versus Pompey.

And I'm sure you've been there.

You just resign yourself to it.

Some things are more important than football.

But the good news, of course, the great news, even greater than Millwall 1, Pompey 3, by a distance, they're not in the same county, is that the toddler is now fine.

Ended up in A&E, ended up...

having all the examinations ended up being there all day because they didn't want to send the child home with us in case there was any any danger at all but that happened and we got home about half an hour after the final whistle and there were so many other things to do that i've only just got round to appraising the game and you know far more about it than i do because at the very least surely you will have listened on the bbc

Maybe you don't.

There is a member of the Mussino family who I know very well who can't bring himself.

If he's not there, he can't bring himself to keep up with what's going on because he finds the wonderful stress levels too much.

So he finds out afterwards what the score was.

I don't have that kind of self-restraint.

Good Pompey fan, good listener.

I doubt whether many have.

But I started to get back into the game.

And then I came into the Pompey Sound studio this morning to sort out Pompey Sound output and get some news and some information and some reaction and some words from John Massino and things like that, that you do.

And the studio had imploded.

The studio, almost in sympathy with the studio,

The post-Chickenpox viral outbreak that the toddler dealt with, the studio was having a viral outbreak.

So I had to get a screwdriver out and lie on my back underneath it with a torch in my mouth, which is what you do because we haven't got one of those head...
