    Residents of Glastonbury town are bracing themselves for the annual confusion that leads some festival-goers to mistakenly arrive in their quaint locale. The town finds humour in the sight of bewildered music fans "laden with tents, boots and rucksacks" turning up each year.

    Somerset maintained their impressive run in the Vitality Blast, securing a six-wicket victory over Glamorgan. After limiting Glamorgan to 130 for 9, thanks largely to Australian international Riley Meredith's 4 for 21, Somerset easily chased down the modest total. This win keeps them at the top of the South Group as they head into the mid-competition break with seven victories from eight matches.

    Robbie Williams' two sellout performances in Bath have been described as 'incredible' - with hopes of more concerts coming to the magnificent Royal Crescent in Bath. The ex-Take That sensation graced Somerset with his Britpop 2025 tour last weekend with a total of 30,000 fans flocking to the venue over both evenings. These concerts are among the few that have taken place at the Royal Crescent, which recently marked its 250th anniversary.
