Parkinson & Kuldeep are old-school wrist spinners; bowlers who beat batsmen in the air, as well as off the pitch. We need to understand & accept that they are unlikely to combine low ERs & SRs like flatter wristies & use them as attacking wicket-taking options. #SAvENG
It took less than an over for people to start saying Parkinson needs to bowl quicker. The kid has got to this level by bowling in a certain way. He might need to develop a quicker ball—as Kuldeep has—but it’s disappointing to see people questioning his method so soon. #SAvENG

Happy New Year everyone! I love this photo of the city centre, taken in the early 1990s. So many modern landmarks missing! Apologies: I can’t remember the source of the photo #rebuildingmanchester

Labour has lost Leigh in Greater Manchester - that's astonishing, majority of more than 9k disappears - but Lisa Nandy holds on in Wigan
Historic towns to benefit from £95m boost named - BBC News. Tyldesley town centre is one of the 69 towns to benefit. Good news but any idea what the money will be used for? @JoPlattMP @WiganCouncil bbc.co.uk/news/business-4969…
@WiganCouncil @JoPlattMP @SalfordCanal @BridgewaterWay @CatrionaSwanson Top coat now applied, even the verges have been seeded. Seen an increase in cyclists,walkers,runners. And thank you for surfacing the entrances to the canal as well! Can’t believe this was once the muddy mile
Fortunately, as an industry we’ve come on somewhat since then. Unbelievable to think that less than 50 years ago, BA had a policy of a refusing to employ female pilots 😳 – at Tyldesley, England
#OnThisDay 1971: "What do the passengers think when they find out that they have a lady pilot up front?"
Nationwide interviewed Yvonne Pope Sintes, Britain's first female commercial airline pilot, and got a trip to Tenerife into the bargain. Score!

I have been there. Everyone should go. The colourisation of these photos brings home the reality of what happened. No one should forget the absolute stain on humanity that this left. – at Tyldesley, England
