The Wing Commander

@Andrew007Uk @englandcricket @CricketScotland @T20WorldCup @UKinKolkata @travellerAmit @Kevinmccfc @RoyGardner007 @SPJ91 @Scarpenter_67 @daveharry007 I am certain Mrs 007 would love a day at the @T20WorldCup as a #ValentinesDay #Treat

Looking forward to seeing both @englandcricket & @CricketScotland in the @T20WorldCup here in Kolkata at the iconic Eden Gardens with Valentines Day slated for the showdown.

@Andrew007Uk @MamataOfficial Just read his obituary in the @thetimes. The bit about his early days in the BBC and the chance that came from being able to speak Hindi is a reminder whilst going to office rather than working from home is important. Be seen and take the challenges that are offered.

@MamataOfficial Thanks you madam Chief Minister for your heartfelt post about this son of Kolkata! A sad loss for us all 🙏🏻

Saddened by the demise of the famous journalist Mark Tully. The Calcutta-born newsman worked for BBC to cover India, and he famously loved India to embrace India. We saw him as one of our own. My condolences to his family, friends and countless admirers.

@Andrew007Uk Cheer up Andrew only 336 sleeps to Christmas

Abysmal and thoughtless timing tonight on my part - my salon where I never wait for service is packed. The reason? It’s #Saraswatipuja eve of course! Doh! Take this as a gentle reminder guys! 💛

@Andrew007Uk @technoindiagrp Well jel

Forest Whisper and I had a secret bet on who would reach Darjeeling first but it was a tie. Great to be visiting this hub of #education, #tea, #agritech #logistics & of course tourism for the first time. Thanks @technoindiagrp for inviting me.

Leaving an Indian state the size of Czech Republic with the population of Canada & GDP of Serbia after a productive trip. Name the state.

@bornatotter @RMTunion Just agreed dates with my daughter to visit Singapore in the new year. I will take your book with me to revisit the places mentioned in Singapore. Many of which I have passed on my previous visits without the prior knowledge of your father's travails.

Powerful review of the book that I wrote about my old man in the @RMTunion magazine this month. Dad fought all his life - for his country, for freedom and for justice. He was proud of his background and of his class and he would be chuffed to see this Union recognition.

@Andrew007Uk Watch the match last night. It was gripping stuff.

What a joy to wake up to the best news - amazing achievement and what incredible goals. 💙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

@suttonunited Not rained off then?

Wednesday night football 🌌

A random suggestion from friends, let's go and help @LondonWelshRFC celebrate their 140th #birthday. Got to chat to their hero John Taylor and enjoy @greytreesbrewer's 'John Taylor Gold' brewed in his honour. What a great win against @havantrfc.

@bornatotter Hi Tots, I have done some research for you. I have been to a Thai league 2 match, the crowd was smaller than at @hackbridgeharry’s team in Mitcham.

Right, so. I’m in downtown Bangkok til early Sunday morning when I head up country in my dads footsteps through the locations of the death railway camps. Anyway, anyone who knows about this stuff any football on tomorrow? I’ve no motor of course. Thanks international hoppers.

@Andrew007Uk @IndiaHistorypic @ArchaeoNomad @rangan_datta I like to know more about this station and it’s narrow gauge network.

@Andrew007Uk @ScotRail @YounusFarhaan @Ilovehyderabad @PrathyushaCFA18 @SuperShaji @KalyaniMuktevi @SudeshnaRay8 @Girl_Clicks @aparay11 @HiHyderabad This was yesterday at Windowsill Bay

Somewhere over the rainbow 🌈 Had @ScotRail cleaned their windows in the last month this image could have been better but it is one of the closest and most vivid rainbows I’ve seen in years. Could almost have found the end…

The local Micropub is celebrating its third year this weekend. The Dog House has been a great addition to the community of Beddington. The Dog House has been a great supporter of live music and today is no exception. @selcamra @CroydonCAMRA

It was a honour and a privilege to attend the book launch of @bornatotter's book 'From Stepney to Hell ... and back'. The story of his father's journey from the East End to Shanghai, Singapore, the Death Railway and liberation. #VJday #VJ80

@bornatotter @Bexhill_United I will see if Mrs Wing Commander hasn't disrespected my #DBDC tee shirt. With the forecast it will be the perfect item to wear.

Anyway. Who’s coming out to play down the @Bexhill_United Polegrove on Saturday for the last home game of the season? You know it makes sense. #PackThePolegrove #COYP 🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️

@Andrew007Uk @NonLeagueCrowd @NickRussellUK @Kieran_drake @ColinDunn2211 What train delays in Germany? 😬

Train cancelations and delays conspired to nearly keep us from our final game of the day between VfB Homberg & SV Sonsbeck. A pleasant evening for it...

@Andrew007Uk @bornatotter Correct. Sutton won the 1980/91 season' trophy. It was originally called the Bob Lord Trophy. However, as Totts says it's a revival is dressed up as a bribe. Hence my references to 'the cup that nobody wants'.

@bornatotter @philipwallingon I thought there was always a Conference league cup; it is that other one they play the bigger boys U23’s we are all meant to boycott.

Tuesday 1 April 2025 Cressing Road, Braintree National League Cup Semi-Final Braintree Town 0-0 Sutton United 4-5 on penalties Att: tbc | £20 | 16pp prog (£2)

@paul_gtastic I did hear a figure of 773 for the attendance last night.

@MarkBravery .....and a penalty saved by Jack Sims and it was bitterly cold on the terraces

⚽️ I missed this one too. Two late goals (including a penalty) turned it round.
