Two muddy bikes, one heavily rusted, by the side of the Manchester canal from which they've just been pulled

And it comes with the benefit of an easy cycle commute to work

A reclining garden chair stuck in the mud in a partially drained Manchester canal

You can really see why Manchester's canal-side living is taking off

Although maybe the ECB has played a blinder, because it seems increasingly obvious the new owners will convert it to T20 at 1st possible opportunity yet ECB has raked in huge sums for the domestic game selling a dubious format?

@eekyrich.bsky.social I've laughed indecently hard at your RT game today, thank you

That reminds me of Johnny Leota, his last season or two he made Tom Curry look positively sprightly. Feel the worst of it is the physical side is visible, not so the head knocks. Will Addison someone I've seen get concussed several times and you wonder when that will manifest

See he's now appealing so wonder if it's like sport and the punishment can get increased if he loses again

Yep, he's hobbled every game I've seen at Sale for a few years now. Gets quite dark watching rugby after a while, I was glad Jono Ross retired when he did because I couldn't help but fear the damage he was doing to himself

The Trustpilot reviews for DAZN are something else, avge score about 1.1 and so many complaints about being screwed for subscriptions people didn't think they'd taken out. I'm not daft & would never knowingly have signed up for what it insists I've signed up for

And just seen this in my TL:

Likewise. Albeit last season was my worst ever by a country mile and I don't think it can get much worse

Not surprised by that UK figure. There are *a lot* of Teslas round my way (too much money without corresponding taste) but last couple of weeks I've started seeing a few BYDs around. If they can't even sell many Teslas my way now, that's not a good sign. (For Tesla at least, we can all cheer!)

That's a ludicrously good deal! Sadly I'm on Virgin & don't think I've ever seen a deal like that. Not had TNT since pandemic ended & it's a bit steep for use I'd get, at least they're not outright thieves like DAZN who are screwing me for 9mos of NFL sub in its off season (misleading deal)

This stands in stark contrast to some of the wording used today in a widely read daily newsletter, which strangely seems to imply that leaving both unable to walk is the natural response

I think your skills are under-exposed on this platform. You need a tiktok account for your biscuit-related updates

I'm shocked, shocked I tell you

I read the Jay Rayner review and it reminded me that I was taken there about 30-odd years ago and now want to go back! Remember it being very nice but no idea what I ate!

So tense watching it this morning! Agree 💯 with all you've said.

Now I've just got to work on my daughter - she grasped the Women's IT20 but just doesn't get the concept of a drawn series 😂

#Cricket. Bloody hell.

This is like how I play cricket, swinging at everything 😂 #cricket 🏏

Oh Jamie Smith 😬

3 balls in and my heart is already racing #cricket 🏏#ENGvIND

Feels much like its politics output in general. Question Time used to be an interesting programme and hear different arguments. It changed several years ago into an awful & unwatchable mess of slogan shouting, again dumbed down. It's a great shame.

While disappointing that Harry is passing up the opportunity to restore his place in the nation's hearts by confirming this happened, one notes the spox stating there was no "physical" fight....

10/10 #Quintessential

Didn't know that about Brady but never liked him anyway. Now I like him even less!

Ha, definitely not! It's Bazball's fault if we lose, don't worry! 😁

Fab! Enjoy your day and here's hoping for another glorious England run chase 🤞🏏

May it bring the finest of luck to our intrepid batters!

Nothing like a good storm to stir the soul!
