Coming soon... a new book about cricket


I've just finished a new novel about village cricket. The lord of the manor wants to build houses all over the cricket ground and the club's members are divided over whether to sell up. There's only one way to make the decision: a Twenty20 cricket match. There can only be one winnner.

Banned by Facebook for reasons unknown

I’ve been banned by Facebook.

Why? I’ve no idea.

What can I do about it?

Nothing.

What have they said?

‘You can't use Facebook because your account, or activity on it, didn't follow our Community Standards. We have already reviewed this decision and it can't be reversed. To learn more about the reasons why we disable accounts visit the Community Standards.’

Can I talk to them and ask for an explanation?

Of course not.

Do I care?

A bit. It’s not nice being banned especially when you genuinely do not have a first clue what your transgression might have been.

Will I miss Facebook?

A bit. But as I rarely used it, I don’t suppose it matters all that much.
