I went to see the Wales Russia game tonight in the fanzone in Cardiff, with daughter and three mates. Well, what a night. Wales demolished Russia three nil and England could only draw, meaning Wales won the group. This was the scene after the first goal. I love the uncontrolled jubilation. Men hugging each other, sunshine, fireworks, good football – it’s like like living in Italy.

The match
Daughter got home from school for the second half of Wales England. Just in time to see Vardy equalise and then the cruel last minute goal.

I’m writing something on digital economy models applied to education so reading a few books on the subject. They’re rarely good.
