I'm booooooooooooored.....

Even as early as Wednesday we all know the chances of Saturday's home game going ahead are precisely zero.  If that.

Even with the Herculean efforts with the pitch at Latimer Park we still know that a carelessly discarded cup of tea can cause flooding, and no rain for a couple of days and the surface is an unplayable dust bowl.

Given the forecast for the next couple of days is for incessant rain we thought we'd fulfil the "public interest" element of our blogging charter and come up with a few suggestions of how you could spend your Saturday, other than watching (and we're not getting carried away you understand) the Messiah Paul Cox's all-conquering Poppies.


Poppies FA Cup Wall of Fame

Might as well give 'em your money anyway....



The Flicks

Sure, it costs an arm and a leg to sit in an uncomfortable seat for a couple of hours listening to other people each Nachos and check their social media every two minutes.  But nothing beats the magic of the cinema, does it?

Personal recommendation?  Doctor Sleep
Follow-the-sheep suggestion?  Joker
Avoid like a Diamonds family reunion? Terminator: Dark Fate (all you will do is rush home and watch 1 and 2 again to remind you this franchise used to be sooooo good!)




The Theatre

Lighthouse Theatre is hosting "Jackson - Live in Concert", with a chap called "CJ" performing as the King of Pop.  We trust the show will be all Thriller dances, perfect pop and Moonwalks, and none of the more, ahem, backroom shenanigans....!  



Activities

Swimming Pool


General swim between 3pm and 4.30pm.  Same length of time as watching the Poppies, and, on Saturday, just about as wet!


Kettering Museum and Gallery

The Museum has, with killer timing, a display about being "Out to Play" in Kettering.  




The Art Gallery has a craft display, hosted in conjunction with an unpronounceable Nordic organisation.




Alternatively, the game might actually be on....
