Tomorrow is the beginning of a much better week.

I agree. I thought the Farbrace Matt Walker coming together was going to work a treat.

So you must visit. It’s where I grew up or if I had of grown up, this where it would have happened. Did I mention the 2026 Championship winning captain is also a Shropshire Lad 😉

They can call them what ever they want; I’m sliding them into my bag 😊

I'm sure the album is very good but I can't be the only one distracted by those lovely pastries and cakes! Did you have all those? I'm not judging but I am very envious.

Asked to do this for Sheffield Cricket Lovers’ Society thought I’d share here as well. Similar groups around the country so if you fancy meeting up with others who also miss the cricket season; this might be for you.

Mine would be something called Changes in the 1970s

AI will mean no season for anyone after 2030 so why not do both 🤷‍♂️

Well I’m going to say thank you Pippa

When you say everyone

Please excuse one other thought. Son asked to go & watch Harrogate Town, at the time non league, as they are again but for two years, free to roam the whole ground watching & it was great to watch; then promoted to Football league, first visit after, I was body searched; it was never the same.

Can’t join you on the boxing, which is fine of course, but you’ve nailed it when highlighting pretence which might be genuine to somebody else but when we feel greed is the driver and attempts are made to hide it, it’s probably time to move on and leave behind.

Well join a long list of people who want to put me in a box and leave under the stairs. There are lots of things to enjoy about a winter but a shorter break would be preferable.

It’s a sanctuary for me; chaotic and defiant and a reason which makes sense to me; not many others thing do.

I know what you mean but openers in Div 2 can often face the quality of opening bowlers as found in Div 1; the difference is often found in first change. I had Lehmann in my middle order, if he was in a better batting side I think he would have been seriously challenging for highest run scorer.

Love these recordings as I love radio but that morning in 67 I reckon Paul Hollingdale had it easy compared with trying to explain where you can find County Cricket on any given day on Sports Extra, Two and Three 🏏 📻 😉
