She's not as slow as me Boss.....I'm still tryen ta get past first base.....ermm.gif

If you got kids ... unless you still have a milkman ... you got past first base.

Maybe the metaphor would be that you would not like to score a duck in your first inningings ...

No dot balls but nothing risky

Just a little flick / prod / poke then run

Are we going for the singles now?

That always seems a bit sordid to me.

Better to stand up like a gentleman and play all your balls, rather than ceding strike to another batsman.

Let's face it, we'd have not put the ground near the gasometer if we did not expect batsmen to loft their strikes over it.

Buy your balls at

Gasometer Used Balls Co.

Maybe I'm just old-fashioned. I prefer sweeping to the boundary, or lofting over the gasometer, but I suppose I need to adjust to modern fashion - swinging, and singles, and the like. I still don't fancy changing ends and letting someone else face my balls, though

KJ is the one going after the singles

I wonder if he remembers all of them

I am sure some of them were worth remembering

I expect he will confirm that their old balls are just like all the other old balls he has played with...

I have been following you guys for some time...but just can't keep up.

To be honest I haven't read every post, but I can get the gist of what's going on......a regular good to and fro amongst some very funny and witty caught behinds, cover drives, lbw's and of course I am so embarrassed to mention......the underarm delivery.

But as far as Thailand needs cricket......at first I thought no...but after 2,375 posts...who am I to argue.

Bowl me a googly......I'll smash it for a six with my 3 wood! thumbsup.gif
