    It was both shaken and stirred by the sound of things. :smile:

    Heartiest congratulations to the Stones, there's is a remarkable recent record, 127 years since their formation. Kent's premier team imo.

    Methinks there's a test player a bit nearer your home territory who has more cause to be reflecting on retirement. :smile:

    Rishi Sunak and the Conservative Party.

    The U.K. were brought into what was mostly known in this country as the European Common Market on 1st January 1973, following a Commons vote that approved it on 29th October 1971. Therefore the referendum that took place under a newish Labour government in June 1975 was asking people whether...

    Donald Trump and the aftermath of his presidency

    Bet you not one dime ever gets paid, regardless of which candidate becomes President.

    Arson attempt at Penzance Station

    It may be a coincidence, but there were other burglar alarms sounding in the early hours of this morning in central Penzance and blue lights flashing.

    :smile: :smile: He was Hoggart, by the way, son of Richard.

    Cricket

    It's only been a batting track when India is doing it, despite Stokes's heroics! Bumrah took a couple of English wickets, including the ball of the innings to dismiss Stokes. Wood had never played a test in India, but was chosen as the only quick, with not even a county medium pacer to back him...

    India have apparently never lost a test at home when their first innings lead was a hundred or more.

    Euston Bank/Charing X Branch Announcements

    Or go full circle and call it City and South London Line, as a sort of tribute act. :D

    London Buses Discussion

    Much the same hype came with the introduction by First Group of the articulated Wright Streetcars in Leeds and other places from 2006. The concept was called ftr and it was supposed to herald ''the future of transport''. The only real feature adopted from the tram was the inaccessability of the...

    Over 66 pass applied for - query about validity

    Sheffield Supertram is unusual in offering free travel to such passholders in the usual permitted hours. Most tram networks only allow their own residents the concession.

    First South West (Kernow & Buses of Somerset)

    I think you're probably right.

    The 2024 London Mayoral Election

    Maybe so, but the point I was making was his inclusion of Labour alongside the Tories, and they were obviously his main target for opprobrium.

    Cricket

    Six wickets down now, but Australia have used eight bowlers, including three spinners. England, by contrast, have gone into their first test with what must be their weakest and most inexperienced bowling line-up ever, or since the 1880s anyway. Perhaps Ahmed will give them some inspiration, or...

    I gather RMs and RTs were very different from each other to drive, not that I've had the experience myself, to my regret!

    Nigel Harris to stand down as RAIL editor

    It's particularly noticeable in a supermarket where each magazine title is displayed full on, unlike in Smith's where they get jumbled up.

    London Buses Discussion

    It's not easy being a bus driver now, is it? Not saying it ever was, but many garages now have a mixture of diesel, hybrid and electric buses, and some have drivers who alternate between all three (e.g. Catford).

    The 2024 London Mayoral Election

    As far as I know Galloway will be standing, or should I say rabblerousing, but I don't see many who might have voted for Khan supporting him, with his latest nonsense that Russia and China aren't the enemy but the Conservatives and ''the main opposition party'' are. He even pronounces Russia and...
