We were worried about taking our veterans out of the rehabilitation centre and onto the open seas. Would they cope? Would we? Well, they're Ukrainian. So now they're just showing off 💛💙 www.goodhub.com/go/healing-u...

There's no way to introduce myself as a #cricket journalist without acknowledging that my CV so far is quite thin. But I'm available for any projects that will help me build a proper portfolio. I'd love to find a place in the mainstream cricket media. Who to talk with? 🏏 jonathancampion.com/cricket

Thought Jamie Overton spoke really well on the @somersetccc.bsky.social #CountyChampionship live stream yesterday, about the IPL and life as an international cricketer. His co-commentator Winnie definitely has potential too... 🏏

Changed my job title on LinkedIn to something like "horse milk influencer | chopon (Uzbek robe) model", and everyone seems to be taking me seriously. Let's see if the Bluesky crowd can be cool about it 🤦🏻 jonathancampion.com

Danial Ibrahim off the mark with 3 from his first ball. The only ball I ever bowled to his dad (Kashif, once close to making the Pakistan team) went for a bit more than that. I pulled my groin and my little brother had to finish the over.

Could Sussex's Tom Clark be a Bazball bolter? Bats in the top 3, murders anything wide. Bowls 80mph. Catches everything. Seems like he's good for the group. Who's doing all that for England in ODIs? #CountyChampionship

Lots of my followers are either Sussex peeps or Ukraine peeps, but is anyone out there a Sussex Ukraine peep? If so, come to @rommari.bsky.social's talk 'How Not To Flee A War' in Lewes tomorrow evening. And please give her a follow, she'll be in other towns too... #LewesSpeakersFestival

I still love the theory a Year 6 child proposed to me that David Attenborough is actually God and he got fed up with people not noticing the amazing things he'd created, so he made documentaries to show off.

'En Route' is out today! I had a great time at Dulwich Books last night, being quizzed by @hblyle.bsky.social. The book is a trip around France on the trail of some amazing writers. Biography and travel. Bars and beaches. The perfect omelette. Lobsters, nationalism and holy places. Trees!

I can’t wait to experience another home World Cup 🏆 Please get in touch if you need someone to cover it!

You can take a boy out of Sussex, compel him to mess around in Kyrgyzstan then land him in Norwich, but you can't take Sussex out of the boy. So proud of my team. Barely missed an over of the @kiaoval.com stream. Congratulations @levparikian.bsky.social, @jmacrodgers.bsky.social, @bethcooper.fyi 🏏

Anyone I'm connected with here going in person to the IAU CAP Conference (Communicating Astronomy with the Public) in Armenia? I'd like to connect – I will be there (presenting in a parallel session on the Thursday). Drop me a message please!
