With the last Ashes Test of the summer starting tomorrow I’m going to do an unusual thing for this ‘Event’ I’m going to add words at a later time but I really want to get these photos published. So, for now, a true phlog – details of what was a wonderful afternoon to follow.
Leapfrogging Event 103 again I have to continue with the Trent Bridge Ashes! I’ve learnt lessons about buying tickets this summer, they’re cheaper for a reason! I paid £60 for a Day 2 seat and was a tad disappointed with my view. I was in the William Clarke Family Stand and had a huge gap, … More England v Australia – Trent Bridge – Day 2 – Event 105
I’m about to break my self made rule about how I write my blog, I have the Surrey v Worcestershire Royal London game to write about – Event 103. But, I just can’t wait to write about Day 1 of The Ashes at Trent Bridge! I may not be able to get too many photos … More England v Australia – Trent Bridge – Day 1 – Event 104
Having had a day of showers and almost Autumnal weather for Day 1 of the Edgbaston test a better day was promised weather wise. Could the on field antics match those of the previous day? It seems that anything is possible in this Ashes series and wow yes it was to be another cracker! I … More England v Australia – Edgbaston – Day 2 – Event 100
After the horror that was Day 4 of the 2nd Ashes Test at Lords I headed to Birmingham with a level of trepidation. It was highly unlikely that we’d see a repeat of England capitulating in an afternoon, but could they bounce back from a record defeat? With the chance to pick my days I … More England v Australia – Edgbaston Day 1 – Event 99
I have to confess to delaying writing this particular ‘event’ up for some strange reason. I am inclined not to write any words and just post lots of photos. But, that’s not my way so here we go. Lords – the Home of Cricket – is the one ground I had no control over when … More England v Australia – Lords Day 4 – Event 93
A reasonable nights’ sleep and it was time to head back into Cardiff for what I hoped would be the final day of the 1st Ashes Test. England had set Australia a target of 412 to win the game. Theoretically they had 2 days to get that total, although rain was promised for Day 5. … More England v Australia – Cardiff Day 4 – Event 91
A quick explanation before I start – I took the decision when I started on my blog that each day, each game on the same day would be its own event. And so here’s the first of what could be 13 days at The Ashes for me this summer! That’s all dependent on both the … More England v Australia – Cardiff Day 3 – Event 90
When I collected my tickets for Australia’s visit to the County Ground I was very hopeful that I’d be able to spend a good part of my Saturday watching them in action. Some of me thought it might be done and dusted by then, but Essex made a good competition of the game and the … More Essex CCC v Australia Day 4 – Event 88
A morning at the Premiership Rugby Fixtures Release gave me a small quandary – Essex were playing Australia in Chelmsford and Surrey were playing T20 against Middlesex at the Oval. In reality I didn’t have to think too much – I rushed back to Chelmsford after having a great morning. A chance to see the … More Essex CCC v Australia – Day 3 – Event 87
