    I know nothing about football. Actually, that’s not true. I have two sons who grew up in Manchester, one a City fan, the other, well, the other, and I’ve lived here for 30 years, so it would be impossible not to know something about it. But what I do know could be written on the back of the proverbial stamp, and to be frank, I couldn’t care less.

    When you move house, especially during winter, the garden is full of surprises. What is lurking beneath the soil? What will poke its head out in spring? Will there be summer colour?
