@JoJoFromJerz I hope you are

I had one rule this week: no one plays on Home Court until some old friends and I get some shots up.

Who’s got next? 🏀

@thewhitespike George, what an enduring delight you are, my old friend. I see you have retired from lorry driving. Are you enjoying your retirement? I hope so. I have basically moved off X since I loathe Musk and what he's done to Twitter. I can now be found on Bluesky!

[Prof.Malcolm Murfett @Profmalmurfett1]

@thewhitespike What about our other old friends who used to ce on Twitter?

[Prof.Malcolm Murfett @Profmalmurfett1]

@Meowlikecat963 No, I didn't. John Miksic wrote the early chapters

[Prof.Malcolm Murfett @Profmalmurfett1]

It's always good to be in touch with you, George

[ELON MUSK @ELONMUSKh0l]

@Profmalmurfett1 Stunning! And good to see you, Prof.

[Prof.Malcolm Murfett @Profmalmurfett1]

It's remarkable to be thinking of avalanche warnings in the northern Alps so early in the season, so those underway today please be careful

[Prof.Malcolm Murfett @Profmalmurfett1]

Well done, Francesco!

What the COVID inquiry has revealed about the prevailing insanity in Downing Street during the pandemic is beautifully captured by Andrew Rawnsley in today's Observer. When we needed leadership we got inanity. Boris Johnson & his cronies are a disgrace to the country at large

@sjanglim @profmalmurfett @warstudies Thanks a lot, Simon!

[Prof.Malcolm Murfett @Profmalmurfett1]

@EHChalus Let's hope not!!!

@krassenstein De Niro says it as it was and is. Trump is mega-dangerous. We cannot afford to have him back in the White House again.

[Prof.Malcolm Murfett @Profmalmurfett1]

@bimbo_observes Get much better soon!

[Prof.Malcolm Murfett @Profmalmurfett1]

@stuartmacalpine They are lucky to have you, Stu. If I was them I would have piped you in too!

University academics are often told not to publish with anyone other than top class university presses. In my experience, however, the quality of a publisher such as Routledge makes that ruling quite absurd. Young academics need to get published. Why not with Routledge?

What better location that a lake out in the countryside on a hot 38C afternoon?
