Wet Wednesday

Leo, no 2 Royal Hound

You will all be well aware no that I, Lady Lainey do not like cold weather or wet weather ( it plays flipping havoc with my orange curls) so to say that the past 10 days have been horrendous for the 'do is an understatement. We are now in the grips of torrential rain and gale force winds!. What is blinking well going on? I am struggling to maintain my usual polished Lady Lainey chichi style. However I am trying ( YES VERY TRYING, 'Job the Jolly'), which can be very made even more  difficult when you 'pop' into see 'Tim'll Fix it' after work, Enter the building in black trousers,black boots and camel coat. Go into office get 'loved' by the royal hounds ( all flipping four of them) and exit wearing black/camel/muddy paw print ensemble. Tres chic!!!

And talking French, the Duke and Duchess of Adelaide have landed back in OZ after a mammoth trip to the Northern Hemisphere. The Duke enjoyed France so much that he is learning the lingo and yesterday lunchtime /evening Oz time, we were conversing in French via Twitter!. Allez Troy!.

It is actually very quiet on the sporty front ( only for the things that I ,Lady Lainey am interested in ) apart from Mr Warne making his mouth go again. This time he is going to unveil his blueprint ( yuk I would rather he didn't!) for the future of Australian cricket, he also wanted to suggest who would be running Aus cricket ( my betting is Mr S Warne-Hurley ). This was after his rant on Twitter. My thoughts are that if you have something to say to the Authorities, say it to them, and not to all your followers on Twitter.

Breaking news.....he is loading his blueprint onto his website and according to @Thecricketgeek   'Part 2 of Shane Warne's treatise on Australian Cricket will be the most anticipated sequel since Alvin and the Chipmunks 2' #muststoplaughing

Oh dear Wednesday morning and nearly off on a flipping full scale rant so...........breathe!

Super Tyke Joe Root has been talking to the press about his lack of nerves regarding his Test Career. Ever a true Yorkshireman, he stated that he was only too aware that it could end at any time. Smart and talented!! has anyone told this to KP????

On this day

30th January

1965 The State funeral of Winston Churchill

1977 Alan Border score 36 on his 1st class debut (NSW v QLD)

1994 Kapil Dev equals Richard Hadlee's record of 431 test wickets


And so I am about to venture out into gales and rain to bring a smile to the little faces of the boys in the office and to consume as much coffee as I can in 7 hours!!!!

Bon Journee
