On this day 2️⃣ years ago, I posted my last #FPL content. My focus had shifted towards getting myself fit and in good shape going into lifesaving surgery. Happily, that stood me in good stead during and after my successful op, and I remain to this day cancer free (1/5)

Our brains love to see patterns in randomness. A thread on the beauty of Pareidolia 🧵 1. Known as "the thinking tree" by locals, this olive tree in Apulia, Italy, is over 1500 years old.
crowdfunder.co.uk/p/carillon Our club has suffered severe flooding, leading to catastrophic damage to our clubhouse, facilities & equipment. We have launched a crowdfunder to help raise vital funds to get sport back at our beloved Carillon. Please help us if you can. Donate, share💜
So a small army (a whoop?) of Old Conts will be watching Honorary President @AggersCricket when he struts his stuff on the Loughborough Town Hall stage. Let's hope he wears his cap...
Contemptibles! We have met our match!

We've made a film. Short, sweet & details just how bad we are. Director @jimbosmith Writer @Davvawavva Blame them. vimeo.com/195173714
And thanks also to @lockhouse for his impeccable organisational skills.
Top night at The Glits. Thanks to @jimbosmith for the usual multi-media extravaganza.
Happy birthday to @AggersCricket from your Contemptible minions.
Not cricket, but Blatter making 'Inquisition' claim is laughable. So...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Ha. That's better.
Congrats to Kev H (@redstartblack) on his first-ever Comtemptible 50! Also in pic, Wrighty & his best-ever score.
Oh, and @AggersCricket, you won't have to play. Just lounge in the sun/rain/hail and watch our peculiar brand of uncricket.
