A poor start to the week but strangely Wednesday and Sunday were OK. I’ve been trying to work special Spanish stations for a Santina De Covadonga, Asturias award. Some luck but it’s not easy trying to predict where they’ll be on the bands.

Sun: There is a sunspot on the far side of the sun so large it is affecting the way the sun vibrates. There is a large dark region an echo of a far side spot--probably AR3088, which may have grown dramatically since we last saw it on the Earth side of the sun in August.
Footy: A new manager for Stoke City, Alex Neil, but same old result, we lose. This time 2 – 1 away to Reading. A goalkeeper error in the 1 st minute! We did score, then gave away a penalty. Next match is at Stoke on Saturday against Luton. Just this very minute, I got a train ticket to Stoke on Saturday. What is going on? Madness.
Cricket: The third test match (Real Cricket) against South Africa starts at the Oval on Thursday. All square, so far. But the weather could be a deciding factor. Raining here and thunder and lightning are due
