    During lockdown everyone made impulse buys, for some it was easy to justify upgrading your power tool collection.

    At least that Dremel would become useful sometime, alas...

    There was a wee incident in Still Game involving a Dremel, although it was somewhat overshadowed in the same episode by Boabby's video.

    ......Billy Bremner, one of 5 Scots playing for Leeds United in the 1975 European Cup Final in Paris. The others were David Stewart, Frank Gray, Peter Lorimer and Joe Jordan. Another Scot, Eddie Gray, came on as substitute in a match in which Leeds felt harshly teated by the French referee. 

      I recall watching on TV, and thinking Franz Beckenbauer was getting away with an awful lot of influence over the officials.

    There's an absolutely brilliant series available online and on YouTube called Leeds United the Wilderness Years.

    It starts with that game in Paris and charts their subsequent decline. I won't give too much away, but there's one episode of absolute gold (possibly episode 8) where the referee is standing in the centre circle on a microphone telling fans to clear the pitch as he isn't going to abandon the game.
