Unreal tenacity from England to win that at the death. They must build on this, and this feel like a defining victory.

Beautiful skills from Henry Slade. Excellent start from England.

England’s replacement strategy is costing them this game.

#SHIT My score predictions again. I’m getting absolutely decimated by surprise results.

#GOOD Archie Vanes for a remarkable hat-trick on debut. And Tigers generally for pulling off that win with a heavily rotated team.

#GOOD Getting used to this place and starting to catch up with the B&M faithful. Big thank you to @joshgardner.bsky.social for the Boygenius prompt in particular.

Feels more Channel 4/BBC3 but worth a go.

Top three not too surprising, but I must’ve listened to β€œAccordion” a hell of a lot…

Inspired by @joshgardner.bsky.social , took a look at my 5 most played albums. Top three not too surprising given when Laugh Track came out, but #4 and #5 are a little left field.

Impressed with the number of plays for Laugh Track given how late in the year it came out. Where was β€œFrankenstein” by comparison?

I’ll put the word around. I was offered one a while back when this was early doors but had no idea what it was. I think there’s a slow migration of from twitter, but the invites are definitely keeping a lid on growth. I don’t think GMB itself is on here yet, though that might be my poor searching

Very kind of you Joe. Taken me ages to get on here, and even longer to find comrades. Very happy to talk H&S on here, even happier to put it good campaigning and organising use. Which would be your expertise… Hope the literary life is keeping you well and busy.
