That's very sad

I'd love to say this Six Nations will be a wake up call for Scottish Rugby, but I know it won't. They'll put it down to so many players being unavailable and a new coach coming in. The reality is a lack of longterm commitment to the girls' and women's game, and the usual SRU shortterm thinking.

A Matter of Life and Death and Grogu

I love Fi in #Amandaland Rochenda Sandall is a great actor.

I have learned to love typos. They show you’re not AI.

This is actually part of Bristol's charitable arm, not the marketing agency. They've given generously to Northampton. #RugbyUnion #PremRugby #Marketing

I love Sam Talakai. He's been such a great addition to the Glasgow squad. #RugbyUnion #URC

Thick and entitled is a dangerous combination when it comes to men like George. Amber needs to get away from him. #TheArchers

No, it is not time to uncancel Enoch Powell The racism my dad, grandparents and entire black side of my family experienced in Birmingham in the 60s and 70s was in no small part driven by his nasty, rancid brand of division and racism Enoch Powell was a racist and a demagogue, period

What is Carol's problem?! She is rude and ungrateful. #TheArchers

I don't want a battle of ideas. I want wealthy people and businesses to pay a fair share of taxes because the wealth does not trickle down and we're all poorer for it, and I want racists and transphobes to stop having undue influence of government policy.

Ugh, as a film studies graduate and big old rugby geek, can I just say I knew all about this already? (I didn't.)

The teams need to get on a horse and gallop to the next checkpoint. #RaceAcrossTheWorld #RATW

I met two research students from Switzerland today to talk about rural life. I stupidly forgot to mention #TheArchers 😉 (This was part of my actual job in rural affairs.)

There are so many sinister aspects to these weightloss drugs, and I find this phrase 'food noise' deeply troubling. Human beings need to eat well to live well. Not sure why that needs explaining!

The inexplicable excitability of political correspondents, as their nation withers and disintegrates

If only the press had been as determined to take down Johnson and his corrupt cronies as they are with Starmer, we might be in better shape as a country. Not to mention holding Farage to account.

Example 9,873 of how crazy #ProD2 is... Aurillac centre Hugo 'Sexy' Bastard scored against Grenoble on Friday without his shirt off (The assist from Lucas Oudard is tidy too) #ProD2MonAmour

I think Amber knows her followers might be a bit disapproving of her having a baby at a young age. #TheArchers

Of course George doesn't think there's anything wrong with trad wife. Poor Amber will be chained to the kitchen sink in no time. #TheArchers

"Protect the farm!" Yeah, never mind that you're all accessories to a crime. #TheArchers

Loving a bit of snark from the continuity announcer there! #TheArchers

Blackthorn for me. www.blackthornsalt.co.uk

I think all of these are possible apart from the last one. #TheArchers

The South East England-based British media are keen to celebrate Reform UK's election dominance. But that misses the fact that Reform isn't winning in Scotland or Wales; and even in England won only 26% of a low vote. And that's with unparalleled billionaire backing. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Good luck trying to intimidate Robbie Smith - he was in the Ayr 1st XV when he was 17. If he can survive playing Hawick at Mansfield Park, he can survive Welford Road! #LeicesterVNorthampton #RugbyUnion #PremRugby

Annoying Joy? I think not. She was England's first-ever female professional footballer. 😉 #TheArchers

MAKE YOUR OWN BLOODY SANDWICH! #TheArchers

Oh Ben, the tearoom is not the place for this conversation. #TheArchers

Carbon offset. #TheArchers

Let's concentrate on David Attenborough today, someone who deserves our admiration and love. Teaching us about nature and the wild places of the world, showing us beauty not ugliness, gentleness not aggression. #DavidAttenborough

I'm fed up of this storyline. I usually like a long-running story and think it's one of the strengths of #TheArchers but this is just meh for me.

And don't vote for fascists. It's very easy to not vote for fascists.

Don’t forget it’s BIN DAY! 🗳️

Azra should talk to RABI about mental health support in the countryside. #TheArchers

Arthur Hughes plays the drawling privilege of Ruari so well. I get St Andrews flashbacks every time I hear him. #TheArchers

NFU drinks party?! I worked for the NFU and I never got to go to a drinks party! #TheArchers

Oh dear, I've had it up to my eyeballs with difficult elderly people. #TheArchers

What an odd opening exchange between Anna and Azra. "I needed the money!" Eh? #TheArchers

I get a lot of AI slop book marketing emails, but this is the first time I have ever been . . . mistaken for Jane Austen.

New storyline for #TheArchers George will capture them on the drone.

Millionaires love eclairs. It's a well-known fact. #TheArchers

Carol will throw those flapjacks at the occupational therapist. #TheArchers

Me trying to smile in work photos.

I wish Bert was literally on another planet and then we wouldn't have to hear from him. #TheArchers

French TV loves a close-up. Not sure we need to see Beno Obano's nostrils though. #RugbyUnion

I wonder what kind of training they get for commentary, and what kind of feedback and post-match debrief there is.

Are you allowed to jump on to the maul? 🤔 #RugbyUnion
