I try to stick to cricket and history. The fact I am a District Councillor and a Treasurer of two churches means life is pretty full!

Exclusive!!! What a scoop for @DerbyshireCCC who are to become the first county cricket club to install a roof over their HQ ground. The ground at Derby, home to Derbyshire since 1870, will undergo a transformation over the coming three years to produce a venue capable of hosting cricket regardless of the weather, as well as a plethora of other activities. The domed roof will be over 75 metres high at its highest point and is shown here in the finalised architect's impression. The opening ceremony, which will dovetail with the opening game of the 2029 season, will see Derbyshire's players abseil into the arena from the rooftop...

@Amelia558rs Ours end up at the cricket club. They have a fairly short shelf life there as they end up mopping up beer or an accident in the tractor shed. A short, brief but useful retirement.

I finally convinced my husband to get rid of his old towels (some of them are at least 15 years old) and bought a couple new ones. What do I do with these ? I don’t think Goodwill will take them.

🚨HOLY SMOKES!!! Trump just said, 'You have to see it, it's very cool!' then started wildly gesturing and mimicking how missiles fly like it's show-and-tell in kindergarten. His brain is mashed potatoes. My God.

🚨 SOMETHING FEELS OFF Watch him closely. • Arms and hands barely moving • Face stiff… almost frozen • Long pauses… staring straight ahead This isn’t Trump’s usual energy. Something’s different. People are starting to notice. What do you see?

@80s_Kidz Fig rolls. I was always despatched to Woollies to buy some. Maybe to supplement deficiencies in our diet. Happy days.

For those with long memories of 1956, it is mildly amusing that the US is now begging Britain and France for help in unblocking what is, in effect, a shipping canal.

The story behind pork pies. Originating in medieval England, they were designed as portable meals. The raised pastry case protected the filling, preserving it for travel and work. Over time, they became a staple of British food culture. Practical, durable, and distinctly English. Mustard, pickle, or plain?

@WorkElizab Ghastly. It has to be in the White House! The only place more dreadfully decorated that 'The Oval Office' is pictured. (I am referring to the one in Washington DC, not the admin headquarters of Surrey CCC in Kennington.)

@AnnieChave Heroes and heroines are so important. One of the great features of 'old' country cricket is you would see a young player make their debut and then follow their triumphs and disasters for your local team. A special association that is dimming.
