Last night I sat at home dreading the ‘bzzz’.
On Monday night I was sitting at home unaware that the ‘bzzz’ was anything to be overly worried about. In this world where so much is wrong and messed up, it ranked low on my list of concerns.
How wrong I was. I watched an episode of a show called ‘Gyeongseong Creature’ on Netflix (enjoyable, btw, if you’re looking for something to pass the time that doesn’t involve goddam dragons or hobbitses), and then I was playing a bit of Playstation. At peace, as much as is possible, with everything.
Then, ‘bzzz’. The ‘bzzz’. My phone vibrating as a new message arrived. What could it be? My first thought was it was another of the emails I get about 10 times a day from ‘media buyers’ who are keen to find out the price of a sponsored post on Arseblog News. I mostly just delete them, but occasionally will reply with a price of €100,000 and the petals of a rare flower than can only be found on the side of a Himalayan mountain in springtime. They never reply to those but if you ignore them they keep trying.
‘I know this is my 17th attempt, and please tell me if I’m being annoying, but can you put me in touch with the right person to speak to about a sponsored post’.
Note to self: Set up an auto-response for all future emails of this sort, because they are being annoying. And stupid. If you can’t infer from someone’s complete lack of response to your litany of missives, you’re probably a bit thick. Not necessarily Jamie O’Hara thick, but in that ballpark.
Anyway, it wasn’t that. It was a WhatsApp from Andrew Allen at 21.14. With news. Not good news.
You’ll have seen the images of Odegaard yesterday making his way onto a plane using crutches, which doesn’t really augur well, but then when your ankle goes underneath you in a challenge, it’s unlikely to be good news anyway. How quickly he will have a scan on it, I don’t know. Perhaps it happened yesterday, it may well be today, but…
