@SquidgeRugby might be right up your street: did you know Kyrgysztan are playing Llandaff RFC tomorrow at 7pm? @nicbowler is the man in the know (and honorary president of the Kyrgysz Rugby Union)

Sick of reporting bot follows and the general fash-fluencer vibes. I have de-camped.

Man alive these Argentinian footballs look really picturesque and soft focus. Really glad I came to watch Bokeh Juniors play.

@SquidgeRugby I showed my 3 year old son some bits from the final & he just shouted WOW at the break for the assist because a fast man was running fast & then everyone was excited so he started laughing.

Ignore the idiots. There's still something magical about it all.

Ifan reminded me just after giving me my birthday presents that it was very important to take turns.

I once played The Toucan. I was on sax, my mate Sian was playing guitar, and the student warden from house P Talybont was playing Tabla. We had one practice session in a kitchen.

It went OK considering all that.

There are so many examples of this across our city at the same time that there is a major homelessness & housing affordability crisis

I'll save you some time: I went, the gelato was OK not great, the ordering screens are pointless and annoying, it was overpriced.

Famously lots of R4 comedy influence on US politics. Did you know the original phrase was "No taxation without hesitation, repetition or deviation"?

[Adam Bienkov @AdamBienkov]

Nigel Farage says violent language by BBC comedians and Radio 4 commentators have "encouraged" what happened to Trump and "have a lot to do with this".

In other news, here's Farage in 2017 threatening to "pick up a rifle" if he didn't get the exact form of Brexit he wanted

Is it our potential to fund rail infrastructure in another country in particular that interests him?

The thing where you use a towel to support learning pedals on a bike is basically a magic trick. Ifs went from balance bike with brakes to completely independent riding in 20 minutes.
