@cricketdistrict @VillageCric @Strollingontour strangest action of the week (but it is only Monday) #RightArmThroughAndOverPleaseUmp

@VocabulousUK I’ve always enjoyed telling pupils about “Dendrochronology”. As Wikipedia says “Dendrochronology derives from the Ancient Greek dendron (δένδρον), meaning "tree", khronos (χρόνος), meaning "time", and -logia (-λογία), "the study of".”

Now it’s your turn! What root-powered word do you love — and what’s the story behind it?

🔍 What’s Your Favourite Word with a Greek or Latin Root? At Vocabulous, we know that understanding word roots helps unlock meaning — and that’s why we love words with Greek and Latin origins. So, here’s a challenge for you:⏬

@susie_dent It looks like someone from marketing @theCOOKkitchen has read about #hurkledurkle

@MyFaveBench Lovely view from this bench outside the Oystercatcher overlooking Loch Fyne.

@cricketdistrict How about this nonchalant caught and bowled by Adam Price playing for the Brasenose Strollers against North Devon? @Strollingontour @instowcricket

@HeadFelsted @chrismorgan1980 Which is why touring with @Strollingontour is such a valuable life experience every year!

@chrismorgan1980 Spot on as usual Morgs - trying your hardest to win is great, only playing to win is not. One of the best lessons sport teaches us is that we will sometimes lose and how we respond to that is crucial for our development.

The merits of a schools sporting program shouldn’t be based on the matches or tournaments they win. There are many other factors that contribute to a successful sports program, such as the quality of coaching, the level of participation, and the overall sportsmanship of the team.

The failed caught and bowled attempt! 😂 Least the communication was there, not so much speed and safe hands but… Has this happened to any keepers out there ❓

Still the best set of school job adverts ever…

@DocCrom And since when did Duolingo become the fashion police?

@TeachingMafia @HeadFelsted @TheBarmyArmy But Langer never faced Twitcher!

@HeadFelsted @TheBarmyArmy Justin Langer said that he was in the top three bowlers that he’d ever faced.

This is the best over ever bowled, period.

@TeachingMafia @Strollingontour @aylott_peter @lostinoxford @skillyskilpad @MirandaKaufmann @chrismorgan1980 @tankerball @RSykes165 @tjattenborough @Ben_Turnill Done too!

@Brentwood_Clscs Plus the “No, no, no ….Yes!” Man from the Vicar of Dibley (Trevor Peacock) as Charon youtube.com/watch?v=iRlqmT…

@HeadFelsted @AndyBarrow2012 And then we’ll have to play Argentina in the most pointless game of the whole thing!

@AndyBarrow2012 Already wishing we had lost to Fiji - the semi final could be carnage!

England fans watching that first half. #FRAvRSA #RWC2023

@vonBalcone 10 print “Hugh is great!” 20 goto 10 Run

@Strollingontour Brasenose Itinerant Fortunetellers Cricket Club it is then!

@Strollingontour Are we just itinerant fortunetellers?

@TeachingMafia Amazing!

@Strollingontour @BNC_Members Great night! Thanks to @aylott_peter, @Strollingontour, and to all at BNC who provided a delicious and sumptuous feast! Fabulous speech by The Beast.

Fabulous night @BNC_Members celebrating a centenary of Strolling

@jimmyrees I just stubbed my foot thumb, you know 4 foot fingers and a foot thumb on each leg hand.

When you can’t recall the name of something!! 😂😅 #funny
