Good Evening..... Very good evening....

Hi de hi....... Ho de ho......

Day late, I know, ran out of time on my wifi...(Fell asleep writing last nights blog....honest...)
Monday, day after the night before eh? Early awakening for the not so dynamic duo, 7am, the mess that is JG was snoring his little head off.....so a pillow to the swede woke him abruptly! After the usual S,S and S, a walk into the MCG....
Across the road we had a great morning coffee with Joe the Greek, then a minor 1/2 mile to brekky with the Asian community(don't knock it till you've tried it!), a further coffee with a true Melbournian (accent very Anglesey but Aussie....) (think Nasal but pretty) and on to the ground.
2 wickets early wasn't expected, but the day went well, Prior and one of the South Africans did pretty well, Mitchell gave away more runs than Monkey at Wellington and a pretty good day! Few beers on way home and good day all in all!
Day 3, Joe's, Asian brekky, then a trek around the money changers of Melbourne as JG, or the Danny De Vito of Guilsfield as he may also be known, was too tight to go with the first offer(cheaper than the one he ended up with) but JG isn't known for his patience.....
To the ground and we ended up at fine leg, not too bad eh? But on row LL..... Think, A,B,C,......AA, BB...you get it? Well LL was the disabled row!(they knew about JG's flatulence problems obviously....) , we did the end of the England inns there, then, using my obvious charm, moved into the sun at backward square leg at the other end. Sat amongst our antipodean cousins, we find humour and a lot of dislike for the Australian selection policy, ah well, sh!t happens eh????
Back in the room, with JG not snoring, blessed are the persons in charge of the pillows, time for a rest! Nos Da Pawb.
P.S.
(from the paper this morning.....) Knock Knock......, Who's there?    Me....Still......(KP and RP characatures...)
