At 43 I have had my first go in the nets this evening. Just bowling for now until I get some kit. Absolutely loved it. Apparently I have a good natural action, which is nice.
I've come away with a slightly dead right arm 😬

I cannot and will not - ever - support a team with the name L**ds. Way to alienate most of your support, Sunrisers.
Not sure if I just stop watching The Hundred altogether, or start supporting the next closest team (not the Lancashire-based one, obviously).

I got behind the Hundred and really enjoyed supporting and watching the Superchargers with my young, cricket mad son. But, as someone who was born in Sheffield, grew up in Rotherham and now lives in Hull, Sunrisers Leeds can piss off.
Sunrisers Leeds? After Mumbai Indians London taking over from Oval franchise name
These name changes are showing how much control has been sold.
And do the opposite of the intention to grow the game’s appeal

A strange day at work. It's A-level results day, which usually means hustle and bustle around the place. However, we are one of those UK private schools who have closed due to "LABOUR AND VAT RA RAA RAA"

They new kits are pretty rubbish, but the home strip isn't quite 2013-14 levels of terrible. I quite like the colour of the away kit, but why those awful "3D" letters? #swfc
This season's home and away kits are quite possibly the worst in our club's history. I'd be amazed if there was another combo from the same season worse than this #swfc

Good news. I interviewed for a new position last Monday and got the job! I start sometime in September as I am helping the administrators deal with, amongst other things, exams results, which they have no experience with. #newJob #redundancy #jobSearch
Bad news. On Friday, my employer told us that they are closing their doors on 5th July and administrators are being appointed. *Sigh*. So any jobs going for a jack-of-all IT guy with 20+ years experience in the East Yorkshire area?

After his usual under 9s training, the 8yo had a go bowling with a hard ball for the first time with the U11s. He absolutely smashed it. Got one lad trapped LBW. Kid's a natural 😀🏏 #cricket #youthCricket #grassroots

Took a stroll down to our local #cricket club, #HessleCC yesterday afternoon.
It sits under the shadow of the Humber Bridge. The river Humber is immediately behind the trees to the left of the picture.
A beautiful cricket ground submission for @wgrumblepants.bsky.social , perhaps?
