There are summer days as a child when all you want to do is play sport and watch sport and talk sport.
Days when the sun shines and feels like it's going to shine forever. Daylight from before you're awake and long after you should be asleep.
And then you grow up, and time shrinks and the opportunities fade. Other things become important. Those days slip away. You still care, but the narratives lose their simplicity. There is too little to watch, or too much.
It barely even felt like summer in the early morning of Sunday 14 July 2019.
