As the talented rapper, singer and actress, Little Simz performs on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury this evening, take a listen to her being joined by the great Joan Armatrading last year at the BAFTAs for a rendition of “Heart on Fire”.

For any younger football fans who are not sure why we older folk rave about how good a footballer Johan Cruyff was, then take a look at some of his moves against Sweden in the ‘74 World Cup. He was a two footed magician for sure. Thanks for sharing GaryCurneen

It’s the weekend once again and time to relax and take it easy. Looking forward to the England game tomorrow but better still is the news that one of my favourite singer / songwriters is appearing at Glastonbury, Ralph McTell. Been a fan since the 70’s with his fine album, “Not til tomorrow” being the first I bought. It’s a cracker, my favourite track is “Sylvia” which was written as a tribute to Sylvia Plath - take a listen if you can. There’s much more to Ralph than “Streets of London”. He was writing about equal rights and mental illness 50 years ago too, listen to “Father Forgive Them”, “Jesus Wept” and “Michael in the garden” on other albums. Plus he is one of the worlds greatest finger picking guitarists plus he is a nice guy - I met him at The Floral Pavilion, New Brighton, Wirral a few years back.

Just as in sport, in business, teamwork is important too. At this afternoon’s Tour de France, we saw an excellent example of teamwork from the Postal NL/dsm-firmenich team, as the younger rider, Frank van den Broek (in his first TDF) supported his older colleague, Romain Bardet, allowing him to collect his first yellow jersey. It was a fantastic stage to watch and such a finish.
