What have they broken and how much will it cost to replace? You'll find out over dinner.

Exile from the other place. Chelsea and socially liberal politics, so nobody will be completely happy with the content.

The BBC comments section can make a story about a puppy rescuing a kitten a depressing experience, but you have my sympathy for wading into one of its most fetid pits.

Quite the opposite - you'll want to have played the game a lot but not finished it. There are two bosses you need to beat to get access to the DLC - Radahn and Mogh. Mogh is a proper level/skill check - I had to do a bit of level grinding before I beat him.

Silmarillion of the Erdtree? Yes, it's really good and it's lovely being able to repeat that first playthrough of Elden Ring experience of discovering and filling in the map. However although I'm fine with the usual enemies, anything boss-tier is kicking my level 136 arse.

What surprised me was how quickly the pressing that put England under pressure and led to the first goal was given up for standing off and playing to England's strengths. And yes, some of the basics just disappeared. When a 3 on 2 attack in the Dutch favour just fizzled out, I knew England would win

Oh aye - Early Mourinho was tactically flexible, extremely decisive and inspired huge loyalty amongst his players. Late Mourinho... well, it's sad to see how far he has fallen.

What a time that was. I had an 'aghast' expression on my face so often I can now conjure it at will. I just need to imagine that I'm the listening to the owner of a chain of mexican takeaways saying 'there's been no proven case of a contagion in a restaurant'.

Yes, but they did nothing much better than the Netherlands (IMHO). The keystone of my argument is that I don't like how England play but they are the very best at it, and teams somehow fall into trying to match them every time in knockout games. Spain will do the same.

I'm vocally critical of this England team but I won't deny it - it's obvious how we play, and teams still drag themselves down to our level. Slovakia and Switzerland can count themselves unlucky not to win - Netherlands were dire by comparison. England are custom-built to counter Spain's style.

My book is out today!
So today's post is an exclusive extract.
It's from the chapter "Contract Killings" - on our growing reliance on a handful of private companies to deliver state services, even though they keep messing up.

England are through to the final of Euro 2024. The Tories have been voted out. I’d just like to suggest to the person with the magic lamp that they use their last wish very wisely.

They've seen one bad poll and decided that it wasn't worth trying to fight the narrative. Biden goes and they lose all three houses because they've just told the voters 'we can't govern'.

I'm more than happy to damn with faint praise. He's an unbelievably lucky general who has set up this team to drag the opposition down to England's level. We're bare minimuming our way to the trophy.

As for zero food intolerances, one of my memories of primary school in the mid-80s is finding out one of the younger kids was lactose intolerant when she had some custard at lunchtime and vomited over the entire table.

I've been ok with how France have been playing in this competition - their biggest problem isn't creating chances but finishing them - but there was one point in the second half when their three across midfield wasn't far enough forward to support an attack, then were bypassed on the break anyway
