Just waiting for Bobos to pick me up and the sun has just come out here in Bedford - I can't wait !!! :D

.......incidentally, just over 1,000 home fans at that match, I wonder how many of them can be tempted along to the Dog and Duck this year?? THAT remains the big question !!

I thought I recognised the name, had a quick check of early match reports from last season but couldn't find him straight away.

Now 3-2 after being 3-0 down. Brady got the first via a pretty big deflection, and Ellwood got the second with a cracking overhead kick from an Okechukwu cross.

They're videoing it so for anyone that's not here you might be able to see it on St Neots YouTube channel.
