Week 226 – July 12th – England v West Indies – Part 3
Jamie Smith walking back to the pavilion on debut test match. Two of England’s greats, Paul Collingwood and Sir Alistair Cook. Is Sir Alistair Cook trying to get some inside information from Paul Collingwood before going on air? -
Week 226 – July 12th – England v West Indies – Part 2
West Indies out on the Lords pitch for warm up. 
The morning score, I wonder how much cricket we will see, could be all over in 4 balls. 
So TRUE. The GOAT. -

Week 225 – July 4th – Voting and funeral
So today was the general election. I think it was earliest I’ve been to vote, it was pretty quiet at the polling station.
The reason we went early, was that we were traveling to Norwich for a funeral of Claire’s mum best friend who had passed away last month.
Thankfully the weather and the journey were good and the funeral went of very well, the church was packed with a lot of people standing.
RIP in Anne.

Week 224 – June 30th – Surrey v Essex – Part 1
With the weather actually being decent all week, with Claire we went to the Kia Oval for the 1st day for the county championship match between Surrey and Essex, which was 1st v 2nd in the league.
Kent are now bottom and looking like they are going to be relegated.
Enjoy the pictures and videos from this visit.
Of course its raining as you find a seat, pitch covered. What is going on with the English summer? Yes as the pictures shows, just after we sat down, it started with fine rain and of course was overcast.
Ben Foakes with Alex Stewart. I don’t understand why he has been dropped from England. Best keeper around. 
Toss of the coin, Rory Burns (Surrey) and Tom Westley(Essex) with umpires Peter Hartley and Graham Lloyd. Toss of the coin went ahead still, so it looks like we could start on time.
