Happiest curled up with a book or watching Test cricket
Thank so much!

Have you seen in today’s paper? Lisdoonvarna!
I’ve popped a link to your recent piece in the comments today as it seems a shame not to link the two pieces
www.thetimes.com/article/8e66...
Florence Knapp’s The Names. The reference came out of the blue within the context of the book…without your piece in the paper this week I would have probably just skimmed by it
(I love little discoveries and connections like this!)
@mjjjennings.bsky.social Second Lisdoonvarna reference this week - randomly popping up in a novel I was reading this afternoon. There’s surely going to be a third one…

Have you seen this?

A common theme, I missed this piece in the NYT in August but helpfully they flagged it in their Morning newsletter today and I thought of you! One for you too @marcaspland.bsky.social
Missed this as we were heading home after our holiday (and then once back I failed to open Bluesky app for ages) but a quick first look suggests this is another cracker from @newsarchive.bsky.social
For fans of the Brutalist style it includes a great shot of Trellick Tower under construction
Just opened BlueSky for the first time in ages and found this! Thank you so much for the heads up and many apologies for only finding this now

@marcaspland.bsky.social @mjjjennings.bsky.social @athersmike.bsky.social
Think this is a piece you’d each enjoy
A superb photograph
With a bottle of ale close at hand clearly thirsty work for ‘Bosser’

I live there, would like to have seen this. Ladies cricket at Greenfield, Saddleworth, 1902.

Behind a pay wall but if you have a subscription this is such an enjoyable distraction from the rest of the news

I ran out of steam looking at all the comments so didn’t see it but pleased I’m not the only one to spot the rhyme with Tish’s work

455 comments!! So pleased this month’s piece has received so much attention. My comment is pending approval (no idea why!) but I loved the selection

Another fascinating dip into the Times photographic archive…
Thank you so much for the heads up! I haven’t got to the paper (app) today but I’ll head over there now to take a peek. Hope all in the archive team have a good weekend

We often get asked to explain the Caribbean Cricket Podcast origin story and how we made it become such an influential part of the West Indies ecosystem.
Listen in as @mashstpaddy.bsky.social and @santokie.bsky.social tell it in their own unique style

The NYT-style (I’m sure others do it too!) of presenting the gallery works really well on an iPad. Have tipped off our Helga who’d been wondering when the archive piece would be landing on the app - know she’ll be enjoying it as much me
