In case anyone needs it, to have the ‘mubble-fubbles’ (16th century) means to have a fit of despondency or low spirits, such as the end-of-summer blues.
Donald Trump sure does seem to be keen to name things after a 15th Century Italian explorer - I wonder why he is such a fan? * Checks Wikipedia * Oooooh - he was a fantasist who probably didn’t do half the thing he claimed, and was involved in the slave trade. Right. Makes sense now.

The new series of A House Through Time - on at 9pm tonight - on BBC Two.
if you don't have an emergency/evacuation grab list, maybe now is the time to draft one.... some scary pics in the news in the event, any kind of list will help you work out what is important rather than headless chicken syndrome!

It really is a fabulous book which doesn’t shy away from examining how the women running women’s cricket for decades were every bit as regressive and elitist as their MCC counterparts in the men’s game, while still celebrating some true heroines I knew nothing about.
Women's Cricket Blog@womenscricblog.bsky.social · last mo.Just finished reading this. Raf's passion for women's cricket oozes from every word. It should be required reading for every current & future pro woman cricketer in England. CTTOI It would do the men good to read it too.
very similar to hive.co.uk where you can support local/indpendent bookshops

Badenoch just said, on national TV, that UK's carbon emissions have gone up "in total" because of the 2008 Climate Change Act. They have, in fact, declined by more than half. Did #Kuenssberg break in to point this basic fact out? Of course not
feels wrong to saying not enjoying the female voices on tms, and preferring the old male cricket watchers, who at least know how to do it......
for those suggesting t20 cricket is not a lot of work load, think about a 6 week trip with your worst relatives, on a schedule not of your choosing, not sleeping in your own bed... might only do one house or park or hike a day, but still exhausting.... most would need a holiday to get over it!
btw, anyone touting click bait on a cricketers private life into my feed will be blocked unless accompanied by umpteen character witnesses to your moral saint-ness... called a 'private' life for a reason, prob controversial, but MY opinion

for me a longer term question for administrators England haven't won a test in a while, but the players all want to play it, and we hear other teams saying the same... if I kept loosing, I'd want to get out of it, so kudos to the players & they need to support them to make sure can be competitive!
as a reminder to all bemoaning lack of multi-day womens cricket, as part of the ECB academy programme last year the Div1 county academies played one game and this year there are 2 scheduled - first in may and second in august...
