Stradbroke revisited...

Hiya Bloggettes,

It has been a busy time cher Mark as par usual... There was Simon's stag weekend and wedding - a visit to outpatients.... a game of cricket... and a college reunion in Slaithwaite... oh and the Manchester International Festival...

The reunion was fun. The class of 94 hadn't seen each other since...erm about 1995! There was a nice number. (6) We could all stay at Jenny's house and get in one taxi...

I enjoyed Huudersfield and it was good to talk about nights out in the 90s in Sheffield...(and various gigs we can't remember.)

Cricket has been a theme of the last month.. At the wedding do I got asked to play again for CWCC against a team in South Derbyshire... It was bitter sweet..

It was fun. But depressing to had to stand in slips to field. I will probably never have the energy to run between the wickets or be a wicket keeper again.. But it is still an aim.. I got the bug...

When we arrived in S'waite we watched part of a village cricket game....and The Ashes starts tomorrow...

It strange having to live sport through being a bit part.

My breathing tests were up at L'pool... but the doc just treated me like a naughty schoolkid for not making an appointment earlier.. In B'ham the appointment system was different..

Well.. Halton's Got Talent final this week - via Blackpool. I will keep you posted.... x
