Gloucestershire v Northants on another glorious day #metrobankfever #cheltenham
In the foreground are feet in brown open toed sandals, behind is a cricket ground and in the background an ornate chapel of Cotswold stone with another stone building at right angles to it. There are also some large white marquees in front of the buildings and trees at either side. On the right there is a big screen in front of the trees. The players who are fielding are wearing a black kit with yellow trim. The batters have pale blue shirts and navy trousers on and the umpires are wearing purple shirts.

Ooh, are Nottinghamshire CCC designing kits featuring rebellious scabs?
A screenshot of an email from Nottinghamshire CCC saying “Rooted in rebellion. Built for success.

Our 2026 white-ball kits have arrived, proudly designed with the rich history and roots of Nottinghamshire firmly at the heart.

Inspired by the rebellious nature of our county, the Vitality Blast kit features vibrant, defiant graphics that take creative cues from local street art.”

Even on a plane it is jam first. Obviously.
A scone, sliced in half on a serviette. Each half has a red jam on with clotted cream on top. To the right is a small pot of Rodda’s clotted cream with a wooden knife sticking out. Behind is a red cardboard box. All the items are on an airplane seat tray.

Why is the pub showing tennis from a country with zero human rights, that murders journalists and is executing dissenters with alarming frequency @afcwimbledon1889.bsky.social? There are football scores you could be showing instead. 🤔

The Broadgate entrance to Liverpool St Station has only put up lights and decorations in OCTOBER.
A modern, wide , two tiered, shop-lined entrance through to Liverpool St Station in London. In the foreground are some green, large leaved plants. In the background a Hotel Chocolat shop is in the middle of the walkway.  iPeople are visible walking to and from the station. On the second tier decorative lights are strewn over the glass balcony. In the centre, behind the balcony is a huge tower of Christmas presents.

The Daily Telegraph front page is a Reform smorgasbord today. Who could have predicted Anne Robinson saying she “loathes the woke terrorises sucking the lifeblood from Britain”?
The Daily Telegraph front page has a picture of Anne Robinson who says she loathes the woke terrorises sucking the lifeblood from Britain” and articles headlined:

“Labour donor’s praise for Hamas supporters” (which seems to be Dale Vincent saying something positive about the band Kneecap.)
“The Greens are Corbynistas on steroids” 
“Transgender teenagers allowed on girls’ wards” and
“Starmer to rent homes for Channel migrants”

Just bumbled into a proposal in Ponte Sisto. She said yes. I guess it was romantic but the previous proposal I witnessed was in Staple Hill ‘Spoons on Christmas Eve and no one is beating that for romance.
A man wearing dark clothing bends on one knee and asks a woman with blond hair and in a beige trench coat to marry him. They are on the cobble stones of Ponte Sisto (bridge) in Rome. On the right a passer by walks with a red rucksack. Behind the couple are a group of their friends taking photos.

This is vile advertising. Labour is using the imaging of the far right and the colours of Reform to pander to racists and bigots. Even if it were to work (it won’t) then those votes would have the stench of hatred.
