para, tyke, nelson

those posts made me smile. I suppose the perpetrators legged it.

Did you see we had our own section in the missing vowels round on Only Connect this week?

Good to hear from you - trust you`re still practising your bowling skills in the local park? I`ll be 70 on March 7th so am hoping to get my vaccine soon - looking forward to being immortal!

tyke

No practice for months but hope to start soon. They have been jabbing the Over 65s this week here so I am sure you will get it soon.

Enjoyed the proper cricket in the first test but not the beach cricket. Amazed at Roots innings - what a player.

Grunger

I agree - the wicket in the 2nd test meant winning the toss was vital.
Pleased Root back to his best - seems only one member of the `barmy army` has managed to get there! Looking forward to the remaining games.

Tyke

Happy birthday and welcome to the 70s club!

Cheers Jijjag!

will celebrate properly when the pubs re-open 🍻

Tyke

Congratulations. Yes not long before you can celebrate, or you could drown your sorrows re cricket.

I see that a young lady from Wigan won the Euro 800m title. Have you trained with her?

Thanks Grunger!

I think the England Cricket management have lost the plot - I know Covid has created problems but the `rotation` policy over selection is just wrong. Fast bowlers need to be handled with care but the spinners need to bowl as much as possible to build up their confidence. England selectors have `previous` in playing spinners when they shouldn`t and not picking them when they should! - Rashid is a good example (IMHO)

I received my census form this morning. It says:

All households should complete the form on 21 March 2021 or as soon as possible after.

That last word jars with me. I think it should be "afterwards", or it should end "after then".
