@WG_RumblePants Yes. Channel Islands over 50s had a “home” game today at Lymington against Isle of Wight. The result doesn’t matter but we played a good contest (in white’s obvs). It still cost some players £400 for one game of cricket though 🤣
Another very hot day. Whitechurch the highest in the UK at 31.8C, but beaten by Jersey at 33.7C - very hot for that island in May. Yesterday the island reached 34.2C
JERSEY: ST HELIER 33.7C
JERSEY AIRPORT 32.9C
WHITECHURCH 31.8C
Yeovilton 31.6C
HURN 31.3C
Chivenor 31.3C
BUDE 31.2C
OTTERBOURNE 31.1C
18mm of rain in parts of Pembrokeshire from active Thunderstorms which have continued to trundle their way Northwards, now over Anglesey
Over 22,000 strikes today , plenty of energy released by a relatively benign upper trough adding just enough cooler air aloft to steepen lapse rates to produce some decent CAPE.
Airmass imagery shows the minor upper shortwave moving north over Ireland, but continuing to further relax. It seems unlikely we will see much activity further east.
The heat builds back across the Midlands and Central tomorrow but should be a bit cooler in the SW
@Getonthelash2@ANDYDB7@JLPerchard@ravi_umpire@safestrauss1@faudes99 💯. ICC make up new rules when they feel like it. Scotland (who we beat and finished above in last year’s ICC organized event), are excused the potential banana-skin of playing on a mat in the equivalent qualifying event we just had to play. They automatically qualify ???
🔴 T20I MILESTONE ALERT! 🔴
A huge milestone for one of Jersey’s finest 👏🇯🇪
Jonty Jenner becomes just the first ever Jersey player to reach 1500 T20I runs. A great way to bring up the milestone with an unbeaten 66 off 23 balls!💪
An incredible achievement 👊

Nick Faldo on the Golf talks about himself more than Donald Trump ….”In my day …I’d have done this …I used to eat that….I loved to do that …I stayed at the Lodge and did this ….”
Oh for the days of Peter Alliss “dear old Ward Jenner up at Royal Jersey would have loved that”
