Most people use Norse words dozens of times every day without noticing. They’re everyday words like “take,” “sky,” and “want” — even a word as basic as “they” comes from the Vikings. How did the English language become so Norse? It’s a story that begins in bloodshed... 🧵

English spelling is a cruel joke Why does ‘gh’ stay silent in “daughter” but sound like an ‘f’ in “laughter”? The thing is, English spelling is actually 100% logical — for the Middle Ages Here’s how the 'gh' sound disappeared from English, and left chaos in its wake…🧵
What a fantastic evening we have just had with The Other Guys 👏👏👏 performing tonight. Such talented chaps with a member one of our own Balderstone family ❤️ they are on tour and certainly worth looking out for.
Only the ECB could fail to give an Ashes Test to either Headingley or Old Trafford in 2027. The furthest north will be Trent Bridge with three in the south east. How is this spreading the game ... especially after four sell-out days and an epic at Leeds this week #Ashes2023

Harry and Meghan’s escape from the limelight hits a small snag after they accidentally record a two-hour interview that will dominate the global news cycle until April.
And against Wolves, even better!
Jimmy Phillips, who represented Bolton between 1983 and 1987, before returning for a second spell between 1993 and 2001, celebrates his 54th birthday today. #BWFC

Well, posting this was a clever career move! Any wonder with support like this Corbyn lost like he did!
If I was on the board or committee of a non-league club I would have no option but to cancel all matches until this is sorted.

People defending the minuscule margins of offside as judged by VAR asking "so what is offside then?" I'll tell you when you're offside. When the lino puts their flag up. Then you're offside. Occasionally they'd get this wrong but there you go. Better than this computer nonsense.
I remember the very first WCF when WI best Australia being a fantastic game, but it couldn’t match that.
Hope you don’t mind me saying , I know the players from both teams ... they put on a hell of a show ... very impressive young men
Good luck with your final recital. You have been a credit to the Cathedral.

Well it’s not really worth £180m is it. The promoted club will probably spend £200m in transfer fees and inflated salaries. And that’s before taking account of the losses incurred getting promotion.
Ridiculous decision. The technology is there. The need is there. The cost of a preventable mistake is, well, £180m. Bonkers by the EFL.
I know worrying isn’t it
Interesting stat from @TheJackDearden - #BWFC have scored 11 goals this season after 17 games. Only once done that before... and that was in 2015/16.
What a great Team @bbcathedral @cofelancs onward and upward

Some wanted to buy him a clock, others a set of golf clubs. Then somebody asked: “But what would he really like?’ So the Premier League gave Richard Scudamore a £5m retirement present. And nobody thought it might seem utterly grotesque.
