The press release is going out today but Mum wanted me to draw attention to it here. After twelve years as manager of Wigtown Wanderers, and eighteen with the team in total, Jacqueline Bell (aka Mum) is stepping down at the end of the year to focus on her family, writing her memoir and her charity work. We'll be holding a party at the end of the year to celebrate her career and doubtless she'll be doing some other kinds of commemorations with the league. Joey, Dad and I are ridiculously proud of her and all she's achieved during her time at Wigtown and we all look forward to sharing a few drinks and telling stories about her playing and managing days at the party.
In other, very important news, two of your favourite former Gryffindors have birthdays in the next week. Personally I'll accept flowers, gifts and assorted tributes and insist that you all shower Alicia with love, gifts and adoration too. Also we should all go get drunk sometime.
