Maybe someone being asked to move a car with a specific registration that is blocking someone/an ambulance in

That is some of the best seam bowling I’ve seen since Broad and Anderson. Can’t believe they didn’t get a wicket.

Just when I thought Issy Wong couldn’t get any cooler, she goes and wears a Broady style headband

Grateful as I was that the humidity made the boy’s swing bowling unplayable last night, I am now sweating like a pig and it’s not yet 8 o’clock

I love the blackboard. I imagine a conversation where a TV producer asked her to do something with a fancy touch screen and she told them firmly but fairly that she was having none of it. Chalk or nothing.

Arise Sir Kevin ❤️ Actual tears. Still think of him as my idiotic kid brother’s sensible mate. Proud doesn’t cover it.

Love that place. Absolutely smashed my kid at all the old games and he returned the favour with anything post 2000.

Literally the first time I ever predicted a Eurovision winner. Maybe I’m down with the kids. Suspect more likely the oldies are voting. Bhangaranga.

Didn’t have time to take a photo because I was using my phone to keep score but I got to see a beautiful sunset over Regents Park last night as I watched my boy play cricket. Sooo much better than standing in the freezing rain on the side of a muddy football pitch. #cricketmum > #footballmum any day

And just like that it appeared on my phone in time. I could be watching Aussie Rules if I really wanted. I don’t.

You’ll be very pleased to know that my tween has a CD player in his bedroom and loves it. Slowly building his collection so he isn’t restricted to stuff from the last century he can borrow from us.

Mine would be get your kid into Percy Jackson: Normal clothes (Camp Half blood T-shirt if you can be bothered). Pen if you are Percy. Cap if you are Annabeth.
