I have to admit I didn’t think I would reach 1000 posts so quickly.
Quite glad it is of cricket and my new hobby of taking photographs.
I hope you have been enjoying the blog?

Week 132 – September 24th – England v India – Part 1
Today we went to Lords to see the England v India women’s ODI match, final international match of the English summer.
For the first time ever I arrived at a match late, as we left late.
Had a lovely taxi journey from Charing Cross with a Greek driver, very chatty.
There was still a fair queue outside to get in, though it moved pretty quickly.
Went and checked our plaque on the Father Time wall before sitting down.
England had started well on a lovely day in September, but there were main twist and turns in this match.
India batting and the ball just over the stumps. 
Flying out to the covers, not a great shot.

Week 132 – September 19th – The funeral
Today was the day that the world saw the longest ever serving monarch reach her final destination after an incredible 70 years of service.
The weather held for the day as she was taken from Westminster Hall to Westminster Cathedral for the service and then to Marble Arch by a carriage pulled by the Navy, where it was transferred to a funeral car for the journey to Windsor.
Some of the roads they drove on, I was driving on them yesterday. Seemed surreal.
There were crowds for the whole journey, just shows what England thought of her.
Incredible day watching this event on the television.
A few pictures I captured from the television.
