Choices. On a slightly misty walk this morning πŸšΆβ€β™‚οΈ

A rusty metal gate barring a misty, tree-lined woodland path with ivy-covered structures and a leaf-strewn ground. A black and white photograph of a misty wooded area with a closed metal gate in the foreground, surrounded by leaf-covered ground and trees with ivy-covered trunks.

Watching the SA20 League for the first time - Paarl Royals v Pretoria Capitals. Some England presence in the teams: Buttler, Roy, Salt, Jacks and Rashid 🏏

πŸ“† | 🏷 Cricket

These three have been some of my favourite players to watch - good news if they can coach as well as they played 🏏

India wicketkeeper Dinesh Karthik will work with England Lions on their upcoming tour to play India A.

Former England batter Ian Bell and ex-spinner Graeme Swann will also be part of the coaching staff.

Photograph of a cookbook page detailing a recipe for House Black Daal. The text describes the dish as a version of daal makhani, a signature dish of Dishoom that is cooked over 24 hours.

The soup turned out to have quite an attractive colour when blended 😊
