You can tell tom is home....his shit is already clogging up the house....the surf board he won while in Oz just scat across the living room....
The amount of rain meant cricket was more than likely going to be called off....we got up to Bradninch before traveling down to Exmouth and it was pissing it down. It rained for the entire drive down but when we got there they had covered the pitch and it was dry...so we got to play...which is good as it is my favourite place to play cricket in Devon....there and Sidmouth.....
They batted first and made 236 for 8...we batted 2nd, and i think due to my hangover antics at last week's game, i was demoted in the batting order and batted at number 7. Their bowling was good, and very quick...our opener, and old boy Andy Nichols got pinned on the chest and had to be taken to hospital as he started coughing blood.....dangerous game.....he is ok though.
I went into bat just as it started raining and they bought their opening quickie back on......managed to make 18 (i did run out bails in the meantime) but then i got talked out. We needed about 7 an over to get a losing draw and the fielders were letting me know it and i knew i had to start slogging, but missed a straight one and was done LBW.
Went back to Sams and picked her up and the journeyed back to exeter tescos for fathers day stuff. Got home and mum thought i had proposed to Sam. I walked into the living room and said 'it's official...' about to go on and say sam had booked her driving lessons...but she thought i had proposed or she was up the duff...she almost had a friggin heart attack!
Had some pringles and some chocolate and a bottle of white wine and watched a film....
Going to La Tasca for some Tapas for tea for a joint My birthday / fathers day / tom returning meal....should be interesting watching mum and dad trying to decipher the menu
Bye
