Should I start on for the Crib El ? It’s not my thread , but Kimota doesn’t post these days ….or maybe you should start it …cos I think that’s actually the biggest thread on the forum .

Baz, I think it would be more appropriate for you to start a new Crib thread rather than myself as I hardly ever post there. I started this new Buddies one as Squiggle is rarely on the forum nowadays

Next week on Friday 31st, the Drama tv channel is repeating the Sister Boniface Mysteries Christmas special "The Star of the Orient" which is two hours long from 8pm to 10pm. It is a gem of a programme and definitely worth watching. Despite the title and being set on a train it's not a retelling of "Murder on the Orient Express". Better than any of the one hour episodes in the first two series. Good storyline and doesn't feel like a one hour episode which has been padded out.

If anyone uses the Bing search engine at present, don't expect it to be functioning as normal as there's major ongoing problem.

This women's T20 cricket match between Gibraltar and Estonia played on 21 April has set a new world record. The wicketkeeper for Gibraltar was Sally Barton making her international debut at the age of 66 years and 334 days, the oldest person to do so, She didn't need to bat in Gibraltar's innings (158 for 3), Estonia's innings starts at about 1 hour 37 minutes, Sally Barton does get mentioned. Estonia didn't win.

Although the match was played a month ago, the BBC haven't mentioned it until today:

The annual cheese rolling event is on Monday:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c2jjknz7kljo
The slope is about 45° and is uneven.

I've never gone to that event though over the years have been on the hill.going through the nearby woods through to Birdlip along the footpath now called the Cotswold Way.

Another BBC article about the cheese rolling event. This time about Chris Thomas who made a short film about a young woman who decides to enter the event for the first time. There;s a link in that article to the film on Youtube,
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5113g5nzqxo
Film was made in Brockworth and Cooper's Hill there.
Apparently there's a Darryl in the film who was played by Chris Anderson. He's from Brockworth and has won more of the events than anyone else.
i haven't seen the film so don't know if it's worth watching or if there's any offensive language in it.
