England Cricket

Thought you would appreciate the humour. Good to laugh after the year we all have had.

Happy New Year to you Brian

Tried to perk myself up by listening to 50 over humiliation in South Africa on Friday and today but, alas, it did me no good whatsoever .  So tomorrow, Monday, I am being taken down to the Surgery for a severe lecture from Senior Diabetes Sister and, should I not make honest and real promises to improve I will force myself to listen to the third and final match at, I believe Johanneburg on Wednesday as penance  .  Its worse than usual since its on Talksport 2  { BBC Has gone into hibernation down south alas }

Thankfully the 2nd New Zealand  test finished before I emerged from my Dreamyland  and I had not got the result or my breakfast cereals would have been drenched in curdled milk, grrrr.  One run, I ask you,  more grrrrs !!

WELL,  we've started this summers Tests  with a resounding win.

Just hope its all ok in ten (10) days time !!

Sadly, as most of you know, our CT friend Brian (ABM) innings has come to an end.

I was shocked to learn of his passing and saddened that we'll no longer read his friendly, witty remarks. His love of English Cricket and T'Alex was legendary. Hopefully he'll be applauding a remarkable Ashes victory from the stands in Heaven.

RIP CT friend. One of the Good guys.

Very apt eulogy ExT. muscles will be & is missed already. It’s quite a shock when we realise a complete stranger(never met) is missed & has an impact on us. I certainly took some time to process it. Thanks for the reminder👍🏻
