cryptic xword

@richardosman Still hope then - I’m 55 and still waiting even with this result !

Amongst all the hot takes this morning, I'm very happy for my Mum, born and raised in the heart of Sussex.

@Cloud_Sounds You couldn’t make that up - unless you were a writer on The Thick of It @Aiannucci

Hahahahhahahaa Greg Cock 👍🏻✌🏻 #GeneralElection24

@holland_tom The wally without the brolly !

This must rank as the most hilariously inept general election announcement of all time

@kitbailey @msimpsonian So does Mabel !

@msimpsonian relaxing at home. Stella knows his place 😁😇

@soundstoryuk @MadnessNews First album I ever bought

On this date in 1979 #Madness released their debut album. What are your favourite track from 'One Step Beyond'?

⁦@eddireader⁩ ⁦@boohewerdine⁩ Very little vinyl left in our house but still have these ! Looking forward to Stamford tonight.

@WG_RumblePants My grandfather’s finest club cricket moment when he played in a testimonial match against him

I wonder how many English cricket fans under the age of 50 know who this man is, which county he played for and how great a Test player he was. He was arguably the Joe Root of his era.

Oh yes

@cuzzy75 Enjoy the Churn Ups ? Guess you’re setting your stall out for GnR tomorrow ?!

@prodnose #FirstLineNextLine Where do I go from here ?

Write a line from a song where you know somebody of your age will automatically know the next bit. I'll start: "But I could have told you Vincent..." #FirstLineNextLine

@mrmarksteel 450 capacity for Eddie the Eagle - but the tickets were free!

@mrmarksteel You’re not the only gig in town tonight - Stamford School has Eddie the Eagle !

@reginalddhunter Steve Martin on steroids

@npickup @bbctms Thank you - that was the question I asked earlier in the day when TMS posted !

@bbctms There's no "might have" about it! Whilst the feat has been achieved 17 times in FC cricket, Tom is the first to manage both parts on the same day of the game. Here's the list in full:

✅ Maiden first-class century ✅ Hat-trick with the ball Tom Price might have made a unique piece of cricket history on the same day! #BBCCricket

@bbctms @Gloscricket Has anyone ever done this on the same day in first class cricket ?

Incredible day for Tom Price. He scores a maiden first class century batting at 9 to help rescue @Gloscricket from 45/7. And he’s now taken a hat trick! EVERY BALL IS LIVE from the County Championship. 👉 bbc.co.uk/sport/live/cri… #bbccricket

@talkSPORT In an extended break in play the cry came don’t just stand there - practise !

What’s the funniest shout you’ve heard at football?

@IanWright0 #soligarity

Everybody knows what Match of the Day means to me, but I’ve told the BBC I won’t be doing it tomorrow. Solidarity.

@matosman @Squeezeofficial From bar to street to bookie

Just heard ⁦@Squeezeofficial⁩ ‘s Up The Junction on the radio. Has there ever been a better short story in song form? I know Waterloo Sunset is the capital’s unofficial anthem but I think this might be the quintessential London song youtu.be/RQciegmLPAo
