@PaddyBriggs Dennis Amiss. Not a long break TBF, maybe around 15 months, but what a comeback in 76. Went thru a tough period v Lillee & Thomson at their peak. Changed technique and proved his class v strong WI attack. Followed it up in India in 76/77 being top run scorer. Class is permanent

@richarddigard @sashakmiller Interesting piece. We are conducting a survey on the GST/tax reform proposals. Hope to finalise results soon, but early indications are our industry believes the GST+ package will inflict more damage on top of the significant rises in base costs over the past 3 years

30 June 1940. German military forces began the invasion of the 4 British Channel Islands: Jersey, Guernsey, Alderney and Sark. It was the only British territory to be occupied in Europe during WW2. The Germans remain there until 9 May 1945.

Germany will be needing Jurgen Klopp

Not to take over as manager, just to get the players the best deals on hotel prices now that they’re on holiday

@Stuart_Linnell Agree on this. Regular poor performance and heavy losses. Little or no recognition that a change of approach is needed. Stewart & Trott would be worth considering.

@richarddigard At least he’s not got socks on😉

@richarddigard @FogBuster_ACI @sashakmiller Hospitality venues have been including Octopus on their menus, but it isn’t proving as popular as Lobster, Crab, and Scallops are/were. Maybe it needs improved focus or it’s simply just not going to takeoff. I’ve heard many day trippers want traditional fish’n Chips

Great start to the season. Play without fear #pusb

You win 100 races at Royal @Ascot. You land your 10th Ascot Gold Cup in the most dramatic fashion.

What do you do immediately afterwards?

@pvbsc1 @YvonneBurford @Govgg I believe overall pax numbers for London are up, so positive for Guernsey. More visitors spending money directly into our economy.

[Alan Sillett (Sill) @GsySill]

RIP Keith Piper. For a time with @WarwickshireCCC comfortably the best keeper in the land. Spring-heeled, electric reflexes, great hands. Allan Donald said Keith was the best. A key player in that marvellous run of 6 trophies in 24 months. A troubled soul, but a good heart.

[Alan Sillett (Sill) @GsySill]

@WarwickshireCCC Very sad news. Brilliant keeper. Ab key part of a hugely successful team. RIP
