A 'Near Death' experience

Football is a random game. I hold the view that the outcome of football matches between moderately well matched teams is completely random - the same outcome would be obtained if twenty-two incompetent, seriously myopic players were to move the ball in random directions for 90 minutes such that, entirely by chance, the ball would go into the goals. See the evidence. |

Since 1969 Geoff has been taking photographs of a tree in Bindon Lane to the East of the village of Wool. Why? He has no idea but it's slightly more interesting than watching paint dry. Or is it? See the pictures on this Award Winning website. |
