@rafnicholson.bsky.social in that conversation about T20 WC in England next summer and with reference made to Kirstie G’s dual nation eligibility status I was dying for you to ask her about playing for Scotland. Please tell me you at least asked off air? @crickether.com

It didn't collapse overnight! Some defects were introduced, which will probably result in peak broadening in the PXRD. Also a passivation surface layer has been added and surface absorbed atoms

The Benson hub would be by the marina bus stops, and the Carterton one at the main crossroads towards Brize Norton. Construction would start in spring 2026 for a summer opening.

Residents of Dean have erected placards protesting against the arrival of American vice-president J.D. Vance in the tiny West Oxfordshire village. They say that they are “extremely angry”, but that the police presence which has sealed off the village has made a “proper protest” impossible.

I've found myself using the f-word a lot lately. Fascism. There's a lot of it about. People don't like to say it because it makes them uncomfortable. It seems extreme. Well, fascism is extreme and you can't ignore it. Get used to it. Start using the f-word.

As a German I will forever be grateful to all who fought for the liberation of Europe.
But as a historian I am looking at front pages today and must wonder: What is the point of remembering #VEDay 80 years on, what is the point of our thanks, when we are failing to protect the sacrifices made? 🧵

In the last interview of his life (1996), astronomer Carl Sagan gave an eerily prescient warning of the dangers that come when you cannot ask skeptical scientific questions of those in authority. Watch and ask yourself: was he right?

There are so many unfounded rumours about which is the oldest pub in the country. However after extensive research, and on present evidence, the oldest purpose-built pub seems to be the George Inn at Norton St Philip, Somerset. Here's a thread on how it was dated... 🧵
