Keeping with Blonde tradition, let's see your predictions for the next 12 months.

My entry last year was mixed:

Here goes then...

1. Spurs finish fourth in the Premier League
2. Article 50 is triggered
3. Joe Root takes over as captain of the England cricket team and scores over 1,000 test runs in the year
4. It is an enormous year for physics as the first "photograph" of a black hole is taken, earning a Nobel prize
5. Brits win 5 bracelets at the WSOP, with one player winning two.
6. May, Corbyn, Sturgeon and Farron lead their parties all year.
7. Fleabag wins a BAFTA.


Only rule is no celebrity deaths, please.
