Just popped into town to hear @alicejolly.bsky.social talk about her new (and award-winning) book: the Matchbox Girl and to catch up with the irresistible force for good that is her husband.
Genuinely some of the most fun I’ve had. The great @adamcreme.bsky.social, the fabulous @ishankolhatkar.com and I hand deliver the @billablehour.bsky.social cookbooks in aid of @savechildrenuk.bsky.social. Amazingly, @nigella.bsky.social (who is kindness in human form) bought one.

My restful time in garden is being undermined by the fact that the dog is trying to stare me into filling her bowl.
So, if the ball, delivered by the bowler, not being a Wide, passes the striker without touching his/her bat or person, any runs completed by the batters from that delivery, or a boundary allowance, shall be credited as Byes to the batting side.
