Hey people, welcome to part two of the socially distant sports spa for this week.

0:22.1

This is one of my favorite documentaries that we have watched in a long, long time.

0:27.2

It is the start of the year, and this guy, I think, is one of the most infused people we have ever featured on the podcast.

0:36.9

He is called Bob Morgan. He was a diver during the late 80s,

0:41.4

early 90s, competed for Great Britain at the Olympics, competed for Wales at the Commonwealth Games.

But this time round, he has looked at some nice pictures of football kits, and I think that's

similar.

1:37.2

It's similar to reading about them.

1:39.5

So thank you so much for listening to our podcast.

Thank you so much for starting your year off with us.
