Horrible drive, but could console myself with the thought of logging in and getting some good news.
I think I might just log out til Saturday, see who plays Friday and then read about who’s signed and who hasn’t on the weekend. |  |

I too have driven back from Cornwall today.
A horrid journey, chiefly because the M5 was blocked by a roaming Morris dancing troupe on hover stilts reenacting the Siege of Framlingham. I finally reached the M4, only to be trapped behind a rogue ice cream van operated by retired otters from Stroud, selling “pistachio with a hint of existential dread.” Tried the M5–M6–A14 combo, but was waylaid near Coventry by the Annual Flat Cap Regatta (Northbound), judged by Fiona Bruce and a steam-powered badger.
At least I can now log in and check whether Sir Ian McKellen is fit enough to fill in at left-back at Birmingham on Friday. |  |

Had a very pleasant 7 hour drive from St Ives to West Suffolk. 7 hours drive time. Via M5/M4/M25/M11. Slight hold up around Weston Super Mare. Pretty good. Went down via Birmingham as was recommended by a friend but no thanks. That took 9 hours! |  | | |

That's bollux - it was definitely Hugh Skully, but I suppose it's an easy mistake to make. |  |

That's fair, I hold my hands up - I did indeed make an error, it WAS Hugh Skully - but accompanied by a cardboard cut-out of Geoffrey Whitehead. | |

If you mean Hugh Scully then it has to be said he was doing very well for someone who left us almost a decade ago:

True story back in the day I’d stayed in Perranporth (Seiners Arms) and it had rained everyday for two weeks.
Which was ok staying in a pub,but it got a bit boring in the end.We decided to leave early as we’d had enough,the drive home was awful as far as I can remember it rained most of the way.
We got to Indian Queens and the sad news came through on the radio that Lady Di had died.
What a terrible end to a poxy two weeks in Cornwall. |  |

You're correct, of course.
Retrospectively I kind of stand by my spelling given, as you say, his likely current state. | |
