This from Saturday's Times:
"Police (in Mexico) found a severed limb near a highway flyover which led them to the pile of taped bags (containing body parts)".
I imagine it hopped along in front of them.

This is from an episode of the drama series Light Perpetual on Radio 4 last Friday (the context was the dispute between The Times and the print unions in 1979).

“ . . . as a typesetter, Alex is a member of the National Geographical Association.”

Good to hear from you - trust you`re still practising your bowling skills in the local park? I`ll be 70 on March 7th so am hoping to get my vaccine soon - looking forward to being immortal!

No practice for months but hope to start soon. They have been jabbing the Over 65s this week here so I am sure you will get it soon.

Enjoyed the proper cricket in the first test but not the beach cricket. Amazed at Roots innings - what a player.

I agree - the wicket in the 2nd test meant winning the toss was vital.
Pleased Root back to his best - seems only one member of the `barmy army` has managed to get there! Looking forward to the remaining games.

Congratulations. Yes not long before you can celebrate, or you could drown your sorrows re cricket.
