@Athersmike When he bats, if you are fond of cricket in the right sort of way, to you then will Trumper’s batting be like reading Robert Louis Stephenson’s description of some great granite rocks
@Athersmike When Trumper, chasing the ball, comes toward you, the air seems to divide; he wakes a buzz of power, something like you associate with a very first-rate motor-car.
@JohnnyA988 Re the Bramford mud slick. It’s all due to the fields being still uncultivated and the fact that modern farming practices destroy the soil structure making it vulnerable to heavy rain. I’ve been clearing some of the mess this morning. Ian Dicker BP councillor.
@childs_jessie One of the reasons I picked the sermon for the reenactment. He gets properly worked up. Sadly modern audiences can’t take a whole hour and a half!
@childs_jessie really enjoying Siege of Loyalty house, especially the mention of Matthew Griffiths’ Patheticall Perswasion sermon was part of a reenactment of a 17th century sermon I gave at a Sealed Knot muster.
@childs_jessie I also make monteros which I would describe as more like a balaclava when unfolded than a hunting cap with flaps. Maybe something for the next edition?
@norcrosscricket Kind of wish we could be sitting on the concrete steps at the Media End waiting for Brook to possibly break Jessop’s record. Maybe in June?
