Fosse Boy

Ha. Remember a meaningless T20 game against Yorkshire 2 years ago where 3 of us ignored that announcement, must've looked very bizarre to have 3 lads invading the pitch for no reason. Let's just say cricket stewards are way more apathetic than their football counterparts though. Ended up in Mecca Bingo on Freemen's Common that night. Christ knows how.

Reserve day tomorrow. Great take from Taylor but they've got too many I reckon.

Wish this rain would do one...

In 2000 Leicestershire had the chance to sign me to their youth set-up but declined to give me a second trial, and now they're playing like this. Needless to say, I had the last laugh.

They absolutely smashed The Roundhouse last night. Top gig. Big fan of the live trumpeter too. Velociraptor is a joke of a song though.

Does anyone know whatever happened to Chris Karloff by the way?

Can't wait. Work commitments have not been kind to me this year so hopefully I'll get down GR to see this one. Have a fair few Kent supporting mates too so would be good to get one over on them.

Early kickoff in Coventry and evening at Grace Road. Plenty will do both I reckon? Seem to remember a fair few watching our first game of the season then hot footing it down to finals day at Edgbaston (or Trent Bridge? Can't remember which final clashed) after the final whistle.

Awesome stuff. Just feels like a squad that's not allowed itself to feel pressured in this competition. Seems like they're going into Championship games with a totally different mentality. Hopefully this run rubs off and translates into the 4 day game too.

Enjoyed Foals last night. Still wouldn't say it's my kind of music but can always appreciate a band giving it everything and getting the crowd riled up - even if there were some horrifically flouncy circle pits going on. Bonus points for them as they didn't play that horrific single of theirs which always gets played in Mosh. Mate got talking to the drummer after too, nice guy. Also, top venue is the Kasbah! I shall certainly be back there in future.

Not quite regretting forgetting to take it off work now.

Won a pair of tickets in Metro to see 'em at the Roundhouse in London next month.

Superb album. Manic Street Preachers - Elvis Impersonator: Blackpool Pier

Catch it next time. Unless you were batting, in which case - 'ook it next time.
