No huge activity on Ten Metres this past week. I worked plenty of European stations on FT8 but nothing special. Best of the rest TM230RF (France special), II8FTDM (Italy special), OH0UDG (Aland Is), OJ0O (Market reef) and AN7AL (Spain special).
There is certainly a wealth of certificates, plaques and shack decorating paper out there to be had if you’re so minded

Sun: The sun is blank for the 14 th straight day.
England and Australia played out a rain affected draw at Lord’s. It was close. Smith was in fine form till he took a bad knock and Stokes gained a fantastic hundred. Next Test starts Thursday 22 nd.
Stoke play Preston (PNE) away tonight, Wednesday. We’d better win or the manager could find he gets a talking to from the owner and the fans. We are equal bottom of the Championship. We play Leeds this Saturday and it’s a bank holiday weekend. The trains times and prices are all over the place
