@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.
Ben Stokes has retired from international cricket. 🚨
The ongoing New Zealand Test match will be his final for England. 🏴
Thank you for everything, Ben. ❤️
@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
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?
Make sure every person you know gets in the picture.
What a man @Ballydoyle@coolmorestud 🎩🏇
@pvbsc1@YvonneBurford@Govgg I believe overall pax numbers for London are up, so positive for Guernsey. More visitors spending money directly into our economy.
May saw more than 7,500 British Airways passengers travel to Guernsey via the new Heathrow Airport route, according to the latest figures. ✈️

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.
