Yes: I didn’t spill me tea.
Well …
Much … !
Nothing a cloth couldn’t solve.
I’m getting old … !

Right, while we’re at it … ? Or about it … ?
I like TV: and will happily admit I’m not a sports fan.
So, normally?
Don’t watch football.
And TEND to ignore tennis, as well.
But … ?
Did notice that the BBC iPlayer will be screening this years Wimbledon championship in glorious 4K.
Via the iPlayer.
Frankly?
Long may that reign.
Again, I’m thinking of the pub game, here: where, in all of the fourteen years I was pulling pints, management’s biggest cost — out side of beer, food and staff? — was TV subscriptions.
Just as an example? I worked in one pub where the area manager decided to cut cost for the year, and cancel its Sky TV subscription. We lost half a dozen potential customers that first day: all of whom walked in, asked if we were showing the next big game …
And walked out, just as quickly, when they found out we couldn’t.
So the fact that the BBC is airing World Cup games, and the upcoming tennis, for free, to anyone with a smart TV, or TV box?
Including pubs?
Is only good.
