I'm trying to get tickets to see one of the days cricket at some point. Hubby isn't too keen but I love cricket and would watch it for hours given the chance. It's a very respectable and gentlemanly game.. None of the amateur dramatics being practised on the pitch :lol:

sadly not obob, but I've a few streamlined friends that are, the Fred W is a real sod of a road race they say, espescially over Hard Knott ( or is it Wrynose, one leads into the other!) at the end, about 112 miles (I think) of sheer slog:yikes::8:
