Takes a lot of heart to convince kids and friends to show up for a game when everyone’s on holiday or injured, and you know you’re gonna get thumped, to avoid the -20 for conceding and have a chance of staying up next week. We salute our valiant neighbours.
Deforestation as a kids game. This is in spectacularly poor taste. Is there a kids game about burning tyres to increase your carbon output, or turning away refugees and drowning children?
Me and @neilsmithillo had a blast chatting to @chrisfloyduk about his photos and creativity - genuinely insightful and disarmingly honest. Who doesn’t want a bit of existential angst on a February Monday?

Discussing the dreadful reviews and worse in-joke puns of matrix 4, @Jacksamueldavey came in with an absolute doozy. Left it till 1045 on dec 21, but it’s a fine contender for geek gag of the year.
According to Twitter, I joined it 13 years ago today. I do remember @noaddedwater trying to explain what it was to me in the @BrightBlueDay creative department in Quay House in Poole. #MyTwitterAnniversary
I should add that @siwhite0 & @neilsmithillo made me laugh a lot during the recording but I think I laughed even more listening back. Great fun and probably my favourite bit of science communication this year.

Question: has anyone older than our 92-year-old president Clarence Modeste, striding out to face the new ball at @Merioncricket on Saturday, opened the batting anywhere in the world this year?
Here’s the scene from the intro to that @norcrosscricket@soonpod ep. Perfect for anyone hungry for more cricket and @bbctms talk ahead of the 5th test!
