Miners strike rich vein of form

14 Feb 1997

The second half saw RSM reduced to ten men when Craig was carried off with a fractured knee cap.. King’s got one back when a long ball from midfield lobbed the keeper - nice on big Rodger! Si sealed the game with his second goal.

The Beautiful and Damned

There is something to be said about the way F. Scott Fitzgerald’s sophomore novel The Beautiful and Damned appears to mirror its own contents. Its prose is nothing short of beautiful, full of sparkling phrases and sentences that don’t have a word out of step. It’s eloquent
