We're still here

We are still here then.

Concerns that the whole world might be sucked into a black hole following an experiment to recreate the conditions after the Big Bang were proved to be wrong last week.

The Large Hadron Collider cost £5 billion, took 14 years to make and involved 10,000 researchers, but it left me thinking: what was the point?

Meanwhile the end of Summer sees new TV dramas being shown. And the return of old favourites.

The first episode in a new series of Casualty was broadcast on Saturday. I am usually a fan of Casualty, however I did not see the need for them to show someone being impaled.

Also we wait for weeks for a TV drama to come along and then two are shown on the same night, at the same time no less.

My gripe concerns last Sunday where Tess Of The D’Urbervilles was being shown on one side and Poirot on the other. Why couldn’t they have been shown on different nights?

Finally Liverpool has beaten Manchester United.

This match always proves to be an amazing sporting occasion and you can cut the tension with a knife. This game means a lot to both players and supporters. And for the first time in years Liverpool have the upper hand over United, although it is very early in the season.
