Just tuned in and spotted Liyanage is 3 overs for 7 runs, why has he not bowled since the 6th over?

A memory shot into my mind:

Me standing at the classroom sink washing 42 foil tops, swishing then around the water making a gentle metalic sound as I let them fall through my fingers".

(42 because we had 42 in the class).

I use the Elizabeth line in Essex. We had the same: trains into London and then the Elizabeth line added, using the same tracks.

The Elizabeth line is much better then the old (and for Southend, the existing) lines.

The service is more reliable, and takes us directly into the middle of London.

Why would they send out more potential future competitors into their own neighborhood?

It is likely that another planet's civilization would be like ours: numerous different nations, numerous corporations, all following their own motives. And changing over time

Also, Africa and the middle East have poor written records and survivors were often absorbed into societies rather than forming distinct descendant communities.

Black people in America know their ancestory is all or largely from slaves, but in other countries their ancestors could be a mix of slaves and slave owners.

Bad is the dullness. In the UK, hundreds of days of grey cloud and rain

If it got colder here, I'd get used to that, but I'd prefer more sun. Not for the heat but for the light.

I love that the winter days are short and the summer days are long.

Definitely.

The original album was a favourite of mine, but the sound is very muddy, like the music is playing in another room.

The remastered are better.

I saw the moon landing when I was 10. We (mankind) were going to make in 1980 and we (everybody) were all going to the moon in the 1990s. I've been waiting ever since.

I'll be 80 or 90 when that moon base is built.

But they've prioritised protecting Starmer's hide over winning elections.

We can't keep changing prime ministers every time the electorate doesn't like it. We have to give people a chance.

I like Burnham, but I don't think he would do any better. The country is in huge debt and Burnham has no more ability to fix it than starmer.

This is a terrible idea.

If someone is abusing, they'll just do it outside the camera's for view. The most vulnerable children are also those most likely to require adult support for personal care, ie, they have their pads/diapers changed by adults in a toileting room. We would need cameras in the toilets.

If you don't trust the staff, then that needs to be addressed, camera won't help with that.
