I haven’t seen today’s cricket but for MCC members (not necessarily a group I sympathise with). to react the way they did my goodness something was obviously wrong. I meanwhile at the same time I was playing cricket against a great bunch of Aussie cricketers. A lovely friendly game of cricket which we won with two ball to spare. I even took my second international wicket in a week following the Wales game on Tuesday!

Enjoyed being at Eldersfield last night telling stories. Told a couple of old favourites – My own “Odd Tale” which ultimately pokes fun at me through the well known device of selling your soul! The other story I told was “The Man Who Couldn’t Tell Stories”.
