The big 1600


Flipping heck, who would have thought that I would have written 1600 blog entries, more to the point who would have thought that people would be reading my ramblings on a regular basis!.
And all because I kept waking up with a head full of nonsense, so thought that I had best write it down.
It's funny how things evolve.

Evolving is what is happening to the Australian team as new blood is brouught in to the team. A lot of reshuffling has taken place. They have even given a place to a Yorkshireman, yes they have!!!!!. Middlesborough born Matt Renshaw has been selected.

Matt could become the youngest specialist batsman to play in a test since Phillip Hughes in 2009.

Other 'ins' are Peter Hanscomb and  Nic Maddison, Jackson Bird, Chadd Sayers and Matthew Wade.

As I commented last week, was Jason Gillespie on the cards to take over from coach Lehhman?
Well at lunch at the 2nd test in India , Gillespie was asked this question and true to form he played it down.
Hmmmmmmm me think he does protest too much!

You may wonder why I am not mentioning the test?

Well I have been listening to since start of play and having bowed India out, England are now battling, but how long will they hang on?

WellI am not sure.
Injuries in last couple of days.

Sprained ankle
torn ligament in the toe
bruised knuckle

strange list of ailments apart from the sprained ankle, but it was the way that injury happened that made it so strange.

Well cakes are being mixed as I type and the oven is heating up.

Its going to be a coffee swilling, cake decorating , curry making, nap inducing type if Sunday.

I will also be on the final push of the year in the grand chateau clearout, and I will be putting the last lot of things on ebay this week.

Also the Christmas decorations are out of the garage, and will be getting put up very soon. can you believe this from the person that had no decs up for 5 years

Lots to do, so best to get on.
