Happy St.Cuthbert’s Day everyone. The northern saint died on Inner Farne, Farne Islands on this day in 687. During his life it was believed that he offered protection to nesting Eider ducks on the islands, the first protection they’d received.

My goodness my daughter (11) absolutely smashed it bowling pace at adult men and women and older boys tonight. The extra competition made her better. Now she’s knackered and sore. Advice, #cricket please @wgrumblepants.bsky.social

It stuns me that anyone listens to a word Hannan says he’s been so stupendously, fundamentally wrong about everything
Hannan recognises that Britain might have to choose between Trump's US or Europe.
Of course, he makes the wrong choice.

Hey I know what would be cool. Buy a second home in a rural village you furnish and fill with expensive shit. Never go. Make sure your shitty alarm is always on. Don’t bother to upgrade it to the sort that can handle frequent power cuts. That would be ace.
