Don't think royalty generally know how to weather loco's...

The Princess Royal seems to be out in all weathers.

I have re-weathered one of those in Mikes pictures but I cant remember which one - now I want a nice clean one..!!!!

I've got a book by Don Oslear somewhere where he says he once received his list of fixtures for the next county season while he was visiting New Zealand. He showed the list to NZ's top test umpire who said "That's more cricket than I've umpired in my whole career!"

Dickie Bird never complained and he's a lot older than you.

One volunteer is worth 20 pressed men - well done Baz.

Some interesting prices too.

Isn't that how the computer software industry has prospered, though?

Yep.. untested and doesn't actually work?

Er, England won....

So who would your team be ?

We need new selectors..suggest Vaughan, Collingwood and the new coach...whoever that is

As far as I can see English Cricketers treat overseas tours as paid-for holidays with a little light cricketing thrown in.

Coaches? Only to take them from hotel to ground and back again.

You weren't saying that during the 'proper' one dayers......

...what a wonderful feeling...

I'm just standing

Watching flowers in the rain,

Feel the power of the rain

Making the garden grow...

and tomorrow I shall be in an umpires coat watching the rain fall.......... watching the grass grow

Yes, my daughter is one! and she's still expensive courtesy of her offspring!

*kof*

'pends which side of the litigation you're on IMO...

That's nothing. Two of my upper molars just disintegrated of their own accord over the last year....

Crimson and cream?

Rose tinted glasses Mke!!

Great stuff Baz - hope it's a secure deal for the long term

In my case it's, finish that fence please!!!!!

I hope the Duchesses don't go 'woohoo'. The Stanier 'ooter is much more of a distinctive sound than that...

oh yes they do do a nice Stanier sound!

Do the summers one

no its quite different in minor bits and bats looking at the photos..

So not cold then!

Yuk !

sadly the BEST time to weather is when its warm....paint flows best!

It isn't if you don't use paint ...like me...

Nowt as strange as (some) folk...

No it isn't!

Yes it is.

No it isn't and I should know, I've ...

Could you give us a Previn, Privet, Preview of what you mean??

fairburn tank in BR numbering.....

E pericoloso sporgersi (with chips)

I have a very old tin of alphabetti spaghetti in the cupboard. If it starts to bulge it's going in the bin. If it explodes it could spell disaster....

Agreed....

I know but you can buy them assembled.At a price.
