@primarily_prog Mojo is saying it is one of their best in the last 10 years. Do you agree?

Managed to find time for the newly released Soft Machine album, celebrating guitarist John Etheridge’s 50th year with the band. The brilliant Theo Travis as crucial as always, and a cameo appearance by founding member Daevid Allen. A faithful addition to Soft’s back catalogue.

@BathBytes Wonderful strike that landed just in front of us

Sam Winters has just hit a 50/22 that is truly bonkers

@thescallopshell Just had this for lunch - fabulous!!!!

@hantscricket @BathBytes great to see the son of a BBW legend doing so well. Good luck to England in their semi final tomorrow

2️⃣ in his first. 3️⃣ in his seventh. ⚡ Manny Lumsden tears through New Zealand's batting to finish with 5/17 as the Young Lions storm into the semis!! Click this link for the full story: loom.ly/O-JQRyU

Thanks @TheSherlocks @KiaranCrook for 2 great gigs (Portsmouth and @giveitsomewelly in Hull) which was our 21st time seeing you. Special thanks for signing the album post gig. Happy Christmas and here’s to more gigs in 2026!

@CSJRobertson @alexjprocter @stace_dcfc @TheSherlocks At Portsmouth last night, Bones made a surprise ( but very welcome )appearance. Could your “new song “ be that?

@alexjprocter @stace_dcfc @TheSherlocks I keep seeing new song on the setlists and when you got to the fifth song it wasnt one I recognised. Ive been to about 6 gigs and dont think ive heard. Probably me.

@TheSherlocks smashing it in my hometown last night. Life doesn’t get much better

@StampyNTFC @YesMusicPodcast Me too. Fortunately the refund appeared in my account just after this email. Anyone know what the unforeseen circumstances were? Licensing? Insufficient pre-orders? ????

@YesMusicPodcast disappointed to just get this in the email....

@Fan0fCrawley Just had a bottle for lunch so feeling bullish- 538

How many runs will Zak Crawley score in this Ashes series? Guess correctly and win a shirt signed by Zak Crawley himself.

@tomdabs He’s one of the very best and that includes icons like David Sole and Victor

Where does Thomas rank amongst the best props ever to pull on the blue, black and white?

@bath_away1865 @OjomohM Agreed - especially as not usual position. Miles Reid is also playing ferociously well

Two games in, which player has impressed you the most so far? Hell of a shift from @OjomohM to start the season.

@tds122 We were there. We agree with you!!!!

Farce of a cricket match . I'm a bit of a grump - but If there tonight think i'd rather have a full refund than sit through that nonsense #ENGvSA

@WG_RumblePants @AnnieChave @Kaybee64 @davidoncricket 3. Live in Wilts so no natural county. Never seen a game but been to 20+ Tests ( home & abroad), ODI’s, IT20’s (inc Cardiff last night grrr) and 100. Appreciate we need county otherwise no test players so wish it well

On a scale of 1 to 10, how much of a County Cricket fan are you and - here’s the interesting bit - what’s the reason for your rating? For context @AnnieChave @Kaybee64 and @davidoncricket are solid 11s - maybe even 12s.

@space238venue @bbctms No refund because there was “a result “. We’re fuming

A thoroughly bizarre game comes to an end. 🌧️ #BBCCricket #ENGvSA

@BarristerSecret Ordered!!!

So apparently #TheCutThroatTrial is currently Amazon’s bestselling legal thriller, ahead of John somebody. Nothing at all to do with #TheCutThroatTrial being half price today as part of some crazed promotion. No siree Bob. Anyway, exploit it here amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/103504…

@TheSherlocks did you know that Richard Osman mentioned you in the rest is entertainment podcast this week? It was about how bands earned money coz it takes 500m streams per month to reach minimum wage. He said fans should buy gigs, merch & CD’s/LP’s rather than stream

@KhanK92872 @Surreycricfan Jacks scored 72 runs off 41 balls in the Hundred final on Sunday (highest men’s score ever in the final)

@Surreycricfan Who told England to pick players from the hundred? Isn't James rew a player? Isn't he performing? In which format has jacks performed till now??

Great to see the England players in tremendous form for the ODI Series against SA after a month of a brilliant warm up event in the hundred…. 🤦‍♂️🏏

@JohnAtherton9 @Surreycricfan No. In the 4 games played at Headingley this year, the Northern Superchargers team ( for whom Harry Brook plays) scored 139, 198, 193 and 147. 130 odd would be a decent score for the women’s team

@Surreycricfan I have never watched the hundred, but would 130 odd be a decent score in that comp?

MASSIVE UK TOUR ANNOUNCEMENT! 🤯 This is the most extensive tour we’ve been on since our debut album came out in 2017. We’re buzzing for this. You can’t beat that raw energy of tearing the roof off with the songs and everyone just going nuts. Spread the word, this is going to be mental 🔥

@GeometryPuzzles As root 16 is 4 or -4 and root 25 is 5 or -5, we get solutions 3 or -3, i or -i, 1 or -1, 3i or -3i

90 percent fail to simplify this radicals #algebra
