The present Mrs Hughes loves football, and watches avidly on TV, cimplete with running comentary. I am usually in another room doing other things, but I can follow the progress of the game, especially if the mighty Potters are playing (she's a season ticket holder).
When the children were small, I was obliged to remove them from the house from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. to allow her to enjoy the build-up, and also give full vent to her opinions of the referee, without delicate little ears picking up any unladylike expressions!
