I've been saving this one lol Petr Cech, the Chelsea goalkeeper, was walking down the Kings Road, window shopping, when he heard screams from a nearby building. He looked up to see smoke billowing from a fourth story window with a woman leaning out holding a baby. 'Help, help!' she screamed, 'I need someone to catch my baby!' A crowd of onlookers had gathered, but no one was confident of catching a baby dropped from such a great height. Then Cech stepped forward. 'I’m the Chelsea goalkeeper,” he shouted to the woman. 'I’m famous for my safe hands. Drop the baby, for me it will be like catching a ball' And with that he adopts the classic goalkeepers stance - legs apart and slightly bent at the knees, body slightly bent forward at the waist and with his arms stretched downwards at a slight angle away from his body, with palms facing forward. 'OK!' screams the woman. 'I'll trust you. I've no choice! Here she comes!' So, with the flames roaring all around her, the woman throws the baby from the window. However, the edge of the baby's shawl catches on the woman's watch with the result that the child goes spinning off to one side, tumbling head over heels and with her little arms and legs flailing. The woman screams and the crowd gasps, all sure that the baby will perish because she will fall out of reach of the man. Cech remains motionless as the child descends, spinning and tumbling further and further away from him as she comes. Then when the baby is only feet from hitting the ground Cech dives a full 30 feet across the pavement, catches the baby in his outstretched right hand, pulls her in towards his chest and shields her body with his left hand and arm. The crowd erupts with cheers and the woman, still in danger herself, nearly faints with relief. Cech, still clutching the child to his chest in his right arm, waves to the crowd of onlookers to acknowledge their appreciation. Then, slowly and gracefully, he turns away from them, bounces the baby twice on the ground, and kicks her 60 yards down the road. Ken xx

Don't worry about it Ken. The best of luck to you. It was nice to have met you. Pity that I didn't have the opportunity to have more conversations with you. I do hope that you manage to visit us again. Take good care of yourself. I wish you all the best for the future. x lesley

Ken But I'll miss all your absurd little football jokes lol. (You can tell I don't know much about football lol but I have been reading your jokes) Are you fed up with something that has been going on here? If so,please don't let it get to you. I think quite a few of us have felt this way today. (Don't require a long answer if you don't want to discuss it :-) ) x Lesley
