My sons insist, & the web confirms, that there's now an international dress style called Eclectic Grandpa. Last night I was wearing some of it by accident & they insisted I complete the look, as shown. Very Harry Enfield, and TBA, I'd say. To be avoided. #notagrandpaanyway
Congratulations to Glamorgan's bat Sam Northeast whom we saw getting into the 180s at Lord's yesterday. Now he's over 200, but since his personal best is 410, he has a way to go. The pitch looks so reliable that you almost have to make a careless error to get out. #seasonstarter
First cousin twice removed Luca Ferraro does it again for Cambridge! And by a street. Congratulations Luca from our boys -- and to mama Helen Castor too. And well done for not getting water-sick.
A direct train from London to fashionable Wrexham is proposed. Why not extend the idea, restoring the existing trackbed through Llangollen, Bala and Dolgellau to join the Cambrian Coast Line at Barmouth (Morfa Mawddach)? Much better idea than HS2 ever was. #WGSebaldsfaveline )
