Waking up in Perth to see if #ManCity overnight made up for the crashing defeat in the cricket yesterday. Oh …

Utter carnage here. But at least it’s pretty carnage. #AUSvENG #Ashes

The 100th Test match that I’ve been to*, and what a bonkers amazing first day it was. #Ashes #AUSvENG #Perth

*includes the 3 “behind closed doors” Old Trafford ones in 2020 during Covid that I watched through a gap in the fence. @finalwordcricket.bsky.social

Well this is proving quite the read. #CovidInquiry
What an #Ashes eve treat this will be to read the verdict on Hancock, Johnson et al, as I arrive in Perth. #CovidInquiry
2/ Following these hearings, the Inquiry’s findings and recommendations will be published in a single report at 4pm on Thursday 20 November.

Waking up the terrible #Mani news. That cap in that photo now will have added meaning today now. #TheStoneRoses
Having tickets for the First #Ashes Test here in #Perth eases the disappointment of missing the UK leg of the @radiohead.wastehq.social tour, both starting tomorrow. #Radiohead #AUSvENG

Can’t say I’m missing the sub-zero Manchester temperatures this evening in #Perth.

Feels weird deciding if packing just one jumper for my #Ashes trip is overdoing it, while it’s currently 2 degrees in Manchester right now. #AUSvENG

And today in the least shocking news ever, it turns out Trump may be a misogynist, and Farage a racist.

Less than 3 days to go before witnessing the inevitable splattering of Crawley’s stumps to Starc’s first ball. #AUSvENG #Ashes

Your timely reminder nothing that will ever top Matt Hancock reflecting on his appearance on #ImACeleb @hpiandycowper.bsky.social

Great end to another excellent @lthanwordsfest.bsky.social with @johnrobbofficial.bsky.social interviewing the legendary @billybragg.bsky.social

I’m not sure the O2 mailing list really knows me that well. Straight in the trash bin …

Turning out to be a cracking Test this. And the 7s right now as an added bonus. #INDvSA

As a frequent gig-goer, I totally get this article. Some venues a lot better than others.

Looking forward to the Reform lot producing an audit into how successful all those flags have been in stopping all those boats they keep banging on about.

I think we’ve now safely reached saturation point with #Ashes preview cricket podcasts. #AUSvENG

I guess one good thing that may come out of today’s events is that if there are any reasonable / intelligent people left who still actually read the Telegraph, now realise what a truly awful rag it is.

Yet it has the gall to lecture the BBC - and whip up a national panic - about journalistic standards
The Telegraph’s Record of Climate Falsehoods
The Telegraph, which has accused the BBC of bias and a lack of editorial rigour, has been forced to amend a swathe of climate inaccuracies. The BBC’s director-general and CEO resigned this weekend aft...

This evening’s episode is a must listen. An excellent summary what the right wing media are allowed to get away with compared to everyone else.
