Gloucester Saint

St Lawrence Ground with its shorter boundaries tends to be high scoring. Their batting line up is dangerous - Crawley, Drummond-Bell, Billings and Stewart (whose six broke a window on Friday night v Notts) - but their bowling whilst on paper decent, perhaps being too samey, struggles to defend hence losing last 3 blast fixtures.

Swap Germany for Argentina and I agree with you.

At least it’s been livelier with Eze and Watkins on.

Till 5 at Aldi is now open.

Panama more dangerous as evidenced there allied to standing off and letting them have a crack at the England goal.

Good cure for insomnia 🛌 😴 💤

Some of the Harvester unlimited salad might perk them up at half-time hopefully.

Further hypocrisy

Well done Kevin Hollinrake and Fiona Bruce for exposing Zia for having applied to be a candidate, being declined yet criticising Burnham

You saw the tipping articles as well https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/clyxgjykx7lo I’ve never minded tipping well in restaurants over there when the service has been good (as it often has been) but as the article states, expecting customers to make up wages well below why at they should be for just selling you a bottle of water that’s already in a fridge is bizarre and a signed of how fucked up their economy and society is.

To you or I, yes, but the locals around here would not have a bar of that. The incendiary aspect is the modest amount of social housing (in amongst houses costing up towards £1m - affordability for families who have always lived here is as big an issue here as Devon or Cornwall). Also, the fact it’s in the middle of nowhere and far more basic means it has some deterrent built in for the asylum seekers who are coming for economic reasons. If you’re genuinely escaping persecution, the peace and quiet wont bother you.

That’s been going on for years, decades even relating to the former airfield. My parents lived in Butlocks Heath/Netley for 25 years.

TBF, I actually found those funny. If you can’t laugh it’s going to be a very long season.

No different to mixed housing being built at scale right behind our Gloucestershire Cotswold stone town. Locals hated it, still hate it, but planners forced it through anyway with consummate ease. Yet when we wanted to replace our extension - no new footprint, the planners put us through a year of hell before approval. And then building control forced changes to the foundations last week which will cost thousands more. See, we can all claim the two tier thing and not a brown person in sight. At the end of the day, we don’t have the ability to grease palms or produce brown envelopes. We’re local residents working with a small, high quality local builder.

Sends a message on THB as well.
