This Diwali, amid geopolitical & climatic storms, rising costs and widening inequalities, may the light we kindle transcend borders, outshine greed and hatred, and illuminate a world where prosperity is shared, dignity is universal and no one is left in darkness.
Happy Diwali!🪔

Lunchtime musings- remembering Derek Underwood @ECB_cricket bowling his deadly line and length, that was barely visible on the then black and white television. Left arm orthodox, he was as similar to Bedi @BCCI, another master of the same clan, as Kumble perhaps was to Warne 1/2

Amidst months of hopelessness from global conflicts affecting local communities, a sobering week, a very consuming day at work, it was as much a privilege as it was therapeutic observing Lent by painting an Easter Egg with colleagues at @SwanseaUniSU 1/3

Last day of the season ended on a winning note, with my team, Morriston Hospital, winning the quadrangular @ynystawe_ycc first beating Withybush GH and then overcoming Singleton Hospital, who had earlier beaten GP XI, in the final on what finally was a delayed Indian Summer day

One of our better attended @SwanseaUniSU AGMs with some interesting motions, debates and votes! Union accounts, Trustees’ report and Officer accountability were all engaging with several hard-hitting and serious Officer questioning!

The @nusconnect #StrategicConversation @cardiffstudents kicked off with great first session from @unitetheunion and Lodestone Communications!
@FAWales fans, players and staff have definitely rocked the stadium with their rendition of the Welsh national anthem .. #RedStorm @FIFAwrldCup22 .. #QatarWorldCup2022 Dewch ymlaen Cymru!!
Afridi injury will hurt @TheRealPCB and tilts the balance back in favour of @ECB_cricket
@ECB_cricket appear well placed at halfway stage to add another @ICC @T20WorldCup title to their trophy cupboard #T20WorldCupFinal but one can never rule out a bowling fight back from @TheRealPCB
