Ahh, needed to call it "thugby" twice in two consecutive posts in case we missed the pun the first time. (Or disappointed no-one marvelled at your outstandingly clever word humour!). Just like my Grandad explaining a punchline to a joke at the dinner table when no-one is laughing to ensure we all understand. Good work.
Nah didn’t need to repeat the joke in case no one got the gag………to me it has always been thugby and always will and as such, I never refer to it as anything else.
But if it gives you a warm and fuzzy feeling to believe otherwise, it’s fine by me as I don’t give a rats arse!

Now that Cricket is an Olympic sport I will have to pay attention to it and to this threat.
O Tempora o mores !!

Johnson is telling it how it is and Warner thinks he’s still in good form. ( So does his wife apparently) He hasn’t been in the best form for a while…very hot and cold lately…too many nicks in the first few overs for the 1 day World Cup.

A little Criticism should not have your wife ringing the journalist be it journo or ex team mate come journo.

2023 new academic research claiming cricket is not purely English but was imported by immigrants from northern Belgium, west Flanders to be precise. The game of cricket was depicted in a painting and mentioned in a poem written in 1533.
English poet John Skelton mentioned the balls and wickets played by Flemish weavers who settled in southern and eastern England.
They are described as kings of Crekettes 🤔
