I was hammering Caliburn on through the bends when twice the front end broke right away and I was all over the road and almost off it. I had a look at the tyres and although the front are quite worn they weren&#8217;t bald by any means but it didn&#8217;t half slow me down after that. <\/p>\n<p>But a short way further on I found someone else who had been taken unawares and I came to the conclusion that the road must have been awash with diesel for some reason or other.<br clear=\"both\"><\/p>\n<p>Mind you, I was lucky to be up in time for the footy and if Percy Penguin hadn&#8217;t have phoned me at 11:30 I would probably still be in bed now. That was because I was chasing a rodent around my attic at some silly time of the morning. God knows how the thing got in but I can see me having to check the defences again to see if there&#8217;s a mouse hole anywhere.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lesguis.com\/images\/1110\/1110049jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lesguis.com\/images\/1110\/1110049.jpg\" alt=\"football club fc pionsat st hilaire st angel puy de dome france\" width=\"300\" height=\"204\"\/><\/a>>Braving the rain (all 18 mm of it) and the hanging clouds that gave me hardly a moment of solar energy, I went off the St Angel to see the 3rd XI play &#8211; or at least, the 1st half of the match. <\/p>\n<p>And what a transformation they were from last year. 1-0 up when I left, and they could have had a bagful with a little more luck.<\/p>\n<p>The match at St Angel was so interesting that I ought to have stayed and if it wasn&#8217;t for the fact that I am now the official press reporter for the 1st XI so it seems, I would have done too for they won at a canter, 3-0<br clear=\"both\">\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lesguis.com\/images\/1110\/1110055.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lesguis.com\/images\/1110\/1110055.jpg\" alt=\"football club fc pionsat st hilaire royat puy de dome france\" width=\"300\" height=\"204\"\/><\/a>Meanwhile, the 1st XI went down 3-2 to a pretty mediocre Royat side. For once the Pionsat defence was mostly tight and in the right place at the right time for once, except in the left-back position and with a good left-sided defender on the bench, that was the only substitution that the trainer didn&#8217;t make.<\/p>\n<p>For once though, the attack misfired and it was a log, hard game. It was only a couple of high &#8220;route one&#8221; balls into the box that gave them the two goals.  <\/p>\n<p>And so back here in the rain again and ready for tomorrow and starting work again. <\/p>\n<p>But I still can&#8217;t get over this weird (lack of) substitution at left back.
