@PictureSporting And here’s the same event from directly opposite, so you must be in the background!

@WindrushCricket @GeorgeDobell1 Just started reading it, and already learnt a good deal. Fascinating topic.

[David Atkinson 🌍 @atko73]

I’ve heard this rumour too. Clearly people should get themselves to Wormsley tomorrow to watch - all in a very good cause.

[PHILIP BROWN @dudleyplatypus]

I know for a fact that the there is a Lord’s Taverners charity match at Wormsley tomorrow (The Final Word v Zero Ducks) but I wouldn’t be massively surprised if there was one Mr Cruise and one Mr Beckham turning out in this match too. #ticketsavailable #ssshhhh #bigrumour

[The Final Word @Final_Word_Pod]

Join us for a brilliant day of Q&As, friends, and New Zealand legend Jeremy Coney umpiring!

@secretHT1 The particular ‘highlight’ was the New Year’s Eve update, wasn’t it.

Today’s beautiful cricket ground is the home of Amersham CC in Buckinghamshire

[David Atkinson 🌍 @atko73]

@WG_RumblePants Think I might have taken this picture! Glorious ground, lovely people (including me…!)

@seatsixtyone A beautiful town and area. We travelled there by train last summer, all the way from Buckinghamshire. The sleeper from Vienna to Brasov was fun!

[David Atkinson 🌍 @atko73]

Hot on the heels of their last day at school yesterday 23 of our yr 13 students, and some recent alumni, celebrated achieving their D of E gold award at Buckingham Palace this morning - a wonderful recognition of their endeavours!

@British_Airways the stunning view from the window seat (23A) we paid £72 for on BA2159. Nothing on the seat map to indicate this window seat doesn’t have a window. Refund/compensation?

@dustshoveller And now, in a display of European unity and collaboration, a Reine Gallette

But the online journey planner isn’t showing any trains to/from Amersham @TfL. I’ve just searched a one stop journey to Chalfont & Latimer and it says to get the bus. Is the problem with the trains or with the website?

[TfL @TfL]

@tuft21 Hi Pete, currently there is good service on the Metropolitan line. For status updates, please visit https://t.co/4QXsQgt3Oy. ^VK

@atko73 @MCCOfficial @CharlburyCC Wonderful stuff- I’m sorry I couldn’t stay until the end! Really good to see you. Here is the Reverend Lord Frederick to whom we owe the wide! https://t.co/vgQOUob1Wt

[David Atkinson 🌍 @atko73]

@OurCofELike @MCCOfficial …and it wasn’t! We got home by 19 runs in an excellent game. Thanks and congratulations to @CharlburyCC on their 150th anniversary, and for putting on such a terrific celebration of cricket and community yesterday.

[David Atkinson 🌍 @atko73]

@OurCofELike The @MCCOfficial team is now fortified by hog roast, and inspired by the fact that the shire horses are dressed in MCC colours. This game ain’t over yet…
