Article in the @theguardian.com about a far right protest in Nuneaton yesterday.
Which obviously isn’t funny, except for this final paragraph from @robynvinter.bsky.social which casually exposes what the journalist made of the protesters….

As a cricketer - and occasional lawyer - I am somewhat confused by BBC Sport saying #India have been set “about 229” to beat #Bangladesh.
Surely 229 is either enough to definitely win the game or it is not?!?

Ordered this from the fab people at @cultzeros.bsky.social last midweek.
Can you guess who scored a hat-trick for @khfcofficial.bsky.social last Saturday?!
Perhaps another Kiddy fan could order their favourite player this week and see if we can repeat the magic! @mrjamesob.bsky.social?

Cracking day out watching @officialecfc.bsky.social at Burton. Last went there 15+ years with my late grandmother. Yesterday I went with my boy and his grandad. Shifting of the generations… ⚽️❤️

Look what I found in my local farm shop! A beer named in my honour. Sort of. Thanks Stroud Brewery! Well, it would be rude not to… Happy weekend all! 🍻

End of a long day, which started in the #snow, then a day in the #Birmingham office, and a 4 hour rail journey to #Cambridge - *but* I have a glass of vino and have discovered a lovely little pizzeria which opened just this week, so life is good! 🍕🍷

Lovely article in @wscmagazine.bsky.social this month. A chap I stood near each game at @khfcofficial.bsky.social passed away recently. I didn’t know him, but shall miss his shouts of “B*llocks, ref!” every 15 minutes or so….
