Today is the earliest sunset of the year.

So at least afternoons will stop getting darker.

At a symposium at St Anne’s College Oxford yesterday I greatly enjoyed hearing @BrianKlaas’s perceptive and thoughtful views on the US political landscape, and am hugely embarrassed that he (and other would-be UK citizens) should have to endure this charade.

The science of global warming beautifully and simply explained by Dr. Carl Sagan, ca. 1985.

After the cardless payment upgrade, it is now taking longer for my payment to be accepted using my debit card. Can you explain why this is? Everytime I cross the bridge there are now queues.

@Gloscricket I'm trying to work out when to set off from Somerset. When will the result of the pitch inspection be communicated?

[James Hector @naturalengineer]

@Gloscricket Is there any reason play may not start at 11:00?

Etymology of the day: the river Büyük Menderes in southwest Turkey, known in ancient times as the Maeander, follows a winding course to the Aegean Sea. Its curves and bends inspired the verb 'meander': to aimlessly follow a leisurely path.

If you really care about the safety of cyclists, lobbying for helmets and hi-viz is the LAST THING you should do.

Don't worry though: Risk management gives you clear new goals to fight for. Go for it!

In 1827 the Bull pub on North Street (now the Steam Crane) displayed a live lion in a cage to attract patrons. The landlord later persuaded bar man Joseph Kiddle to enter the cage as part of a wager and was promptly torn to shreds in front of a horrified audience. #Bristol

Unfortunately, we are having to cancel our Guildford, Lichfield, Manchester & London seminars due to COVID-19.

We hope to re-programme those seminars for later in the year and will issue invites if circumstances allow us to do so..

Thank you for your support,

It took five years and 1,000 men to dig the #Bristol New Cut using shovels, picks and explosives. Upon completion in 1809, a banquet was held for the workers, with each given a gallon of ale to celebrate - leading to a massive, drunken brawl between the English & Irish workers.
