    • A company manager is flying across the desert in a hot air balloon when he realizes he is lost. He calls down to a man riding a camel below him and asks where he is. The man replies “You’re 42 degrees and 12 minutes, 21.2 seconds north, 122 degrees , 10 minutes west, 212 metres above sea level, heading due east by north east.” “Thanks,” replies the balloonist. “By the way, are you a data analyst?” “Yes,” replies the man, “how did you know?” “Everything you told me was totally accurate, you gave me way more information than I needed and I still have no idea what I need to do.” “I’m sorry,” replied the camel-riding analyst. “By the way, are you a company manager?” “Yes,” said the balloonist, “how did you know?” “Well,” replied the analyst, “You’ve got no idea where you are, no idea what direction you’re heading in, you got yourself into this fix by blowing a load of hot air, and now you expect me to get you out of it.”
    • Big fan here. I go to one or two County matches a year; the trouble with following Lancashire is that games are played at Old Trafford, possibly the ugliest and most corporate plastic place imaginable.   I did however go to my first ever outground game a few weeks ago, and it was probably the nicest day I've ever had watching cricket. It didn't hurt that the weather was glorious. Watching cricket in cold / damp weather is utterly demoralising.  I went to a couple of The Hundred games in 2021, which was OK, but it's difficult to root for a brand new team, whose personnel changes every year. Also, the overexcitedness of it all is cringeworthy and false, but then again, I'm not the target audience.
