@SamMorshead_ @ajarrodkimber Read Jarrod’s post and started thinking of your startup as a possible solution. Then I see you chime in… 😜 Hope it’s going well. 👍

We’ve been covering settler violence against Palestinians in the West Bank for years.

But yesterday, we found ourselves on the menu.

A group of masked settlers beat our team and pummelled the 51 year old woman we were interviewing unconscious.

We’re all ok now - and Aida is out of the hospital - but this is just one incident among an unprecedented surge in settler violence across the West Bank.

Here’s out story on yesterday’s attack on Sunday Today on @NBCNews.

For the Telegraph, I wrote about how recreational clubs are moving to digital scorebooks
🔴 inside a Play-Cricket Scorer app workshop!🧑🏻‍💻
🔴 up-to-date ECB data on rise in recreational games being scored live📈
🔴 how digital scoring could be key to growing recreational game🏏

🏏 Village cricket clubs are being asked to move to digital scorebooks by the ECB, which means pen-and-paper tallying risks extinction

@GeorgeDobell1 Why not do away with the anthems and get a few more overs in?

@jamesmckz Fascinating list. I love that Nagisa Ni Te album, too. There are so many but I'd recommend
• From A Summer To Another Summer comp by Maher Shalal Hash Baz
• Hikouki Gumo by Yumi Arai
• Ipiya by Nika Soup and Saya Source

New: London has a shortage of homes, but it doesn't have a shortage of golf courses.

In fact, London’s 95 golf courses take up more land than the entire borough of Brent.

Here's the case for building on some of them.

Does pop get any better than Overnight Sensation? Love this live version and intro to it by Eric Carmen. RIP. https://t.co/8YmPgkKSia

[bob stanley @rocking_bob]

Goodbye Eric Carmen. The Raspberries were a fucking fantastic band. Too bad they never managed a hit in the UK - Overnight Sensation got enough airplay. https://t.co/qYEaWsEWpN
