MRS H was on the television today.
Near the end of the Torquay v Burton game the cameraman swung round on the Popular side crowd and found her in full flow on the phone, looking rather lovely.
The commentator said: "They're on the phone but they have nothing to worry about at the moment, Burton Albion."
By the time we got home from the game several people had already told Younger Daughter "I've just seen your mum on television", so we watched the recording and sure enough, there she was.
For the record, she's not a Burton Albion supporter, and she wasn't anxiously following the score from the Cambridge game. She was arranging with her mother how to get her mother's windy Jack Russell back home to Brixham from our house.
In the picture the shoulder in the chequered jacket belongs to Younger Daughter, by the way. I was safely in the press box sipping champagne and eating swans and caviare.
