Tired here in Frampton after an amazing night watching the football. What a game Mexico v England was! England battled through adversity (altitude and losing a player to a red card) to win in the formidable Aztec Stadium. I was really gripped by the football and thought every player for England performed well. Of course France and Spain look really strong. It is the hope that gets you!

I am playing cricket again tomorrow and hoping we will get through the heat. Think we will get this one in- the weather has plagued my Tuesday cricket this season!

All my story telling is booked for the end of this week.
