Look, I realise it's worse for the Poms stuck in Blighty, but a day/night test on Queensland time is almost as bad for us AEDTers. I'm pooped and off to bed. 🏏 #Ashes

Australia end day two on 6/378, a lead of 44. A fascinating days play, with twists and turns. The huge news is, we get a 3rd day! 🤣 🏏 #Ashes

Australia take first innings points, passing England's 334, 6 wickets down in the 65th over. 🏏 #Ashes

300 up for Australia for the loss of 5 wickets. Still trailing by 34 on the first innings. 🏏 #Ashes

Carse, who is no longer having a 'mare, gets Smith caught for 61. Carse now has 3/97 off 12.4 overs. Aus 5/292. Drinks. 🏏 #Ashes

Carse, who has been having a 'mare, bowls Cam Green for 45. Aus 4/291 trailing by 43. Next ball Duckett drops Carey! 🏏 #Ashes

“Social media ban” is also a misnomer for the Australian law, in that it currently applies to only ten websites. Bluesky isn’t one of them. Nor is Tumblr, fascinatingly.

50 up for Smith (no, our Smith). Aus 3/265. Trail by 69. Nice. 🏏 #Ashes

AUS did not have a 50 run partnership in their 1st innings in Perth 6 of their 7 partnerships since then have been 50+ The only one that wasn't was when they hit the winning runs in Perth #AUSvENG

Evening session. Australia trail by 106 runs on the first innings, can they overtake that tonight? Aus 3/228. 🏏 #Ashes

Dinner at the 'Gabba. Australia 3/228 2/98 in the session. 🏏 #Ashes

Labuschagne snicks one through to the keeper and is out for 65. Aus 3/196. 🏏 #Ashes

Himes: "What I saw in that room was one of the most troubling things I've seen in my time in public service ... any American who sees the video that I saw will see the US military attacking shipwrecked sailors."

Labuschagne brings up his 50 with a filthy top edge for 4 over the keepers head. 🏏 #Ashes

Labuschagne is livid that Smith is wearing stripes under his eyes to absorb the glare from the lights and he doesn't have any. Marnus will have them by tomorrow's night session. Possibly by the end of tonight's 'Dinner' break. Got to match Daddy Steve. 🏏 #Ashes

Bugger! Weatherald LBW Archer 72. Labuschagne tries to get him to refer it but Jake knows Marnus' reputation in this area and continues to walk off. Australia 2/146. 🏏 #Ashes

Excuse my posting this as just a screenshot of my LinkedIn post. But it's quicker and more to the point than creating a thread here. If you know someone, please pass this on. If what we're looking for at LUXE describes you, my DMs here are open to contacts. Thanks. 🙏

And that's tea (40 mins) at the 'Gabba. Australia 1/130 trailing by 204 on the first innings. 🏏 #Ashes

What's this? Spin? Why are they allowed to bowl spin and we aren't? 🏏 #Ashes

Fifty up for Weatherald just after Australia breaks 100. Aus 1/101. Travelling nicely. 🏏 #Ashes

"They're always up, no matter whats happening." Fox commentator talking about the Barmy Army. No they're fucking not! When things aren't going England's way, they're the biggest bunch of sooks in world cricket! 🏏 #Ashes

Alright. Let's get this bread. 🏏 #Ashes

Archer strokes Doggett to a flying Labuschagne to be out for 38 England all out for 334. 🏏 #Ashes

Scorers ready? Play. England resume at 9/325 with Root on 135* and Archer on 32*. 🏏 #Ashes

Pre-cricket nap. Go! 🏏 #Ashes

I like that Le Monde specifies that Babybel is an "industrial cheese." The French take their cheese very seriously. "Industrial cheese" is not to be confused with traditional cheeses.

This is wild. The US now consumes more of the French Mini Babybel cheese that any other country by far. "'A healthy snack.' That is how Americans view Mini Babybel, the small, ready-to-eat industrial cheese wrapped in its signature red wax." www.lemonde.fr/en/economy/a...

A lovely photographic census of Scotland's Brutalist (and Modernist) architecture.

He must have wanted paying.

Decisions were made. Not wise decisions, or great decisions. Not even sensible decisions. Decisions nevertheless.

Woke up to our first real snow of the winter in Santa Fe, so I thought I'd stick with that them and share one of my favorite wintery photos I've taken, from a visit to Canyonlands National Park back in February 2019. Nikon D750, 70-200mm lens at 200mm, f2.8, ISO100, 1/1250 second, +1 exposure comp

Marge, Marge! The change is 'ere. *throws open windward windows*

Tea on day 1 at the 'Gabba, England are 2/98. That is, after a horror start, England's session. 🏏 #Ashes

Am I having a stroke or is the CGI KFC Ad supered on the turf at the'Gabba not the image of Colonel Sanders but a portrait of Travis Head, moustache and all? 🏏 #Ashes

A masturbation conference sounds like a lot of wank. I'm sorry. I'll show myself out, shall I?

Michael Neser is the first player whose first 3 career Test matches have all been Day Night matches #AUSvENG

Starc gets Pope to chop on. He's out for a 3 ball duck. Starc 2/5 1.3 overs Eng 2/5 2.3 overs. I may have over-catered the snacks. 🏏 #Ashes
