Script 1

So what makes a Good Life? To have done something important do you need to be named? To have made a difference do you have to have an image which is instantly recognised? Do you need a million Tweets and a billion followers? An Oscar winning bio-pic? Is the business of a life lived to the full only worth knowing if you yourself are known? A tree falling in the empty forest is not unheard. If nothing else it’s noticed by the other trees. So I fall. Back into the silence of history.

Script 2

It’s wearing your heart on your sleeve

but keeping your cool.

The noise, the chants

Points won, points lost.

To win the cup or just stay up

We go again, we march on.

Win games and you’ll be fine.

Football, bloody hell

Its turning up and never giving up

Meeting triumph and disaster

Dust yourself down, pick yourself up

And face the arena.

To coach

To lead

To deliver

To succeed

You just do it.
