It's that time when people suggest their own stuff as gifts, but this is doubly awkward for me as my last book ('A classic outsider's journey'- @mrneilforsyth; 'Smart & funny'- @JillTwiss) is now out of print after a collision between the publisher and the UK economy. BUT (1/3)

Back in 2007 I wrote a thing urging for Charlie Chaplin films to be shown in A&E. I'd upload it to the NHS consultation but I suspect they'd think it was another timewaster, rather than a variant of the @rorysutherland 'mirrors beside the elevator' thing. privatesecretdiary.com/2007/…

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'm not sure if the shame alternates or if it's still me.

The world is NOT ready for the sublime werewolf transformation in the 1987 Thai movie Wolf.
So another year of county youth pathway cricket over for the kids, 100's of miles driven, tears, laughter etc & I was going to do a long thread about lessons/observations etc. but I don't have time so I'll just post the most important, which is never get your hair cut in Taunton.
Spot on for me. I'd add that it's been great for the women's game, and keeps halfwit DJs off the streets.
I know there are bigger things happening in the world, but I just sold my bowls and it feels like the end of an era.
Very delightful setting. Not a bad way to spend a day off.
The @FostersSol Norfolk U18 Girls gave made a long trip to Blankney CC to play Lincolnshire U18s in the ECB 50 over League. Norfolk have won the toss and are bowling g. Evie Booker taking a wicket in the 1st over.
