I have now seen two title matches, a double dog collar match, a dream tag match and a six way ladder match. There is still enough time left in this show for the entirety of ECW One Night Stand.

Just been to Asda (ASDA!) and bought some bits and bobs for the next few days. It was just short of FIFTY QUID. I really need our political system to find an answer to this that isn't fascism.

We have had a pitch inspection. There's a patch that looks like Monday morning Glastonbury Festival. We will have further pitch inspections at 12.30, 1.30 and 2.30 before abandoning the game at 3.30. We all know this. We will all pretend otherwise. This. Is. Cricket.

Today I am exceptionally grateful that the "30 days of gratitude" meme/project on Facebook has ended.
Coronation Street had a Rovers Return scene with Kirsty MacColl's They Don't Know on the jukebox and cut to another scene just before the "Bayaaaaaaybee". Heads must roll.
Going to ask a website designer if they want to be punched in the face and offer them only two choices, "Yes" and "Maybe later."
Can we just save time and confirm that if I want to know what Bully Ray or Booker T say on their podcast, I'll listen to their podcast.
Absolutely stunning scenes at Southampton where Alice Capsey has been caught off a conventional shot.
We're currently in a range where parliament wouldn't just be hung, but there wouldn't even be a viable *three*-party coalition that could construct a majority.

Amazing work by a leading travel site with the email line "Booking Disruption". I mean, yeah, if you literally just cancel my booking, that is a bit of a disruption.
If the multiverse theory is true, there are universes where Kendo Nagasaki is called Jii-jitsu de Janeiro or Sambo Vladivostok.
Experiment/feedback request. My wife just used the phrase "diamond light", which I heard as "diamond lights". What do you immediately think of when you hear that phrase.
London Spirit miss the cut off and have to bring a fielder in, leaving more gaps for the Trent Rockets batter to target. It's completely shifted Overton's window.
Johnny Bairstow just missed a catch because he was being interviewed on player mic. This is out of hand now
Currently on Channel 5, Nina Wadia (b 1968) sharing her memories of watching the 1963 Royal Variety Performance as a kid.
It's ok because the explanation is genuinely that his company got the money from the mother of "Posh" George Cottrell, the convicted wire fraudster whose gifts to Farage are.. controversial.
