It's weird hearing the ambulance sirens on the cricket commentary and in real-time from my desk.
I was given out caught behind at Stormont one night as an ambulance was passing. The bloody umpire gave me out when there was no way he could have heard a thin nick over the noise of the siren about 80m away on the road. I didn’t hit it!
I’m going to rejoin the local cricket club as a non-playing member.
Playing again would be madness. Watching from the bar with a pint is much more sensible.
I might also join the NICSSA Chess club in addition to the cricket club.
They also have other clubs such as rugby, hockey, tennis, football, athletics, archery, fencing, bowling, squash, table tennis, golf, and rambling. 14 different clubs in total. The rambling one might be worth looking into as well.
Wolfram live stream their language design sessions. Some of the discussions get salty. Such as Stephen Wolfram telling people he doesn’t like something. A new one has just started. They are also available on demand.
In today’s good news column, we can put that I found out there is a sequel to the film Drive Away Dolls. It’s already been filmed and is currently in post-production.
I’m not sure if it’s a direct sequel or is just part of a film trilogy in the same style as Drive Away Dolls. Margaret Qualley is starring, but Geraldine Viswanathan and Beanie Feldstein don’t seem to be returning.
The Beaches have announced some UK and EU dates for August & September. They are in the UK for the Reading & Leeds Festivals. The new dates are listed below. Hopefully, I’ll get to see them this time. I had to cancel both planned trips to Toronto and London to see them late last year.
