I hate a dilemma. Everyone does. That’s why they’re called ‘dilemmas’ and not ‘wonderful things’ or ‘chocolate ice cream with sprinkles’.

Came home from Tai Chi last night, energised, toughened and with my yin fully aligned with my yang. And a bit sweaty. Quick shower and on with the news. We love the news. And then…

On BBC was Question Time. I love Question Time. Bunch of horrible political party-liners squirming under the questioning of real people, trying desperately to defend the indefensible. And on ITV there was Europa Cup Highlights.

And it was my choice. Like Sophie, I had to make it alone and by myself. Mel was in Sudoku-world and is not a great fan of QT anyway. And although she’s no big lover (massive understatement) of televised footy; wonderful woman that she is, she is delightfully tolerant if its Spurs. What a saint. I am blessed.

And, by sheer coincidence and good fortune, it WAS Spurs and, for once, I had no idea of the score. Because it was ‘only the UEFA’ and no-one really cares about that. Except we do. Because when your team plays you want them to play well. And hopefully win.

So what do I do? What did I do??

I knew that Question Time would be heavily about ‘London’s third runway’. We need one, we’re going to get one, its ridiculous we don’t already have one and the only question is where we put it. And I don’t care. Simply don’t care. Its just inconceivable that a city of the stature of London is deficient in aeroplane capacity. Third worldish. Stupid. But no-one wants the noise and pollution in their back gardens. That’s the debate. One which David Cameron keeps putting off til… tomorrow. MAKE YOUR DECISION DAVID.

Like I did. And watched the football. Which was the right choice. Really the right choice. We won so well. So prettily. Against a Monaco side ‘that beat Arsenal in February’. Although its not because (literally) half their team was sold in the summer. The good half. Making my boys look great. And boys they were. A different team, with ‘the others’ getting a runaround. 4-1. Eric Lamela scored a hat-trick. I thought I must have dozed off and dreamt it, such is the likelihood of that happening. But happen it did.

I definitely made the right choice. Mel agreed.

Happy victorious Friday.
