I don't think I've ever come across such a clear cut case of nominative determinism.

The Taliban have just announced that women are forbidden from being visible through the windows of their own homes. Refusing to play this match should be the easiest decision these cricketers make in their entire lives.
Janice Turner@VictoriaPeckham

On February 26 the England cricket team will play Afghanistan. WHY? Are England men happy to validate a regime which denies women all human rights from education to simply walking in a park? Now the Taliban are cracking down even on women going online. Boycott the ICC.

I bought myself these fancy socks from Nordic Socks. Not only are they happy colours but the soles of them are cushioned! I never knew luxury socks were a thing! Plus they do all the colours in all the sizes so I got 8-10 for my generous feet and even have wiggle room 😁

Planned a takeaway treat for the kids to cushion the post holiday blues. @McDonaldsUK with @JustEatUK have really let us down (not for the first time). Cold fries, 2 waters and a coffee instead of a sprite and a coke, and no McFlurries at all 🙄

"We consider that more detailed consideration is needed before any change is made to the provisions in the Act". How to read this unexpected intervention from EHRC? Worth noting there have already been 2 public consultations in advance of draft legislation expected end of Feb

Builder just asked to speak to 'the man of the house'. Considered objecting and pointing out it was my money that was paying him, but then realised how little I wanted to stand outside in the cold talking about generators and went and got the OH (who was no keener on the idea!).

Scaffolders arrived at our house this morning. This has upset 7 to a surprising degree. I explained that we need the scaffolding so that we can have a new roof because we don't want water leaking into her bedroom. Her response? "My bedroom's already wet ... WITH MY TEARS!" 😲

Overheard this morning: 7: Imagine if Santa was real and he adopted you - that would be great! 11: No it wouldn't. You'd have to do work like an elf! 🤔

Well, maybe this is taking FR-DE solidarity a tad far….. In any case: congrats to the English team for a deserved win #ENGGER #FRASUI #EURO2020. And now, allez #DiablesRouges !!!
Sebastian Fischer@SFischer_EU

This is #FrancoGermanFriendship. Winning together, losing together. C’est ça, la solidarité. But it is definitely more fun to win together. Hopefully we will meet in the finals next time. In any case: Congratulations to @England and @nati_sfv_asf! #ENGGER #FRASUI #EURO2020

First time a nation with fewer than 4m people have qualified for the 2nd round two Euros in a row. Pretty impressive really.
