Totally off-topic, inexcusably so, but I'm posting this anyway. The England captain Joe Root was bowled out today in the first Ashes test by the Aussie bowler James Pattinson. Unfortunately for the latter, the bails didn't fall off and Root survived. This has caused nothing less than an international incident. But I'll tell you summat. While this particular fury rages, there'll be no brexit, no world wars, no Boris and no Trump. Treat yourself to a laugh-out-loud few minutes and read the comments after the Guardian report, "Joe Root’s lucky escape was far from freakish – bails law needs a rethink." I've been sitting here reading them for the last half hour and all my troubles have drifted away...
