Well in all the excitement ( or excrement as auto correct keeps trying to change it to of the cricket, and my Tykes and all the other nonsense that I blog everyday, I had completely forgotten to mention Sir Wiggo, who is currently doing the Tour of Catalonia. who finished 6th in the opening stage of the race. Sir Bradley came over to race form a training camp in Tenerife ( yeah!! it was an 18-30's hotel!) where he is in preparation for Le Tour. I wonder if Dame Didi is??
Okey dokey bit of cricket news , Mitchell Starc is to undergo an ankle operation and hope this will see him fit for the Ashes tour, where he is hoping to get a place. Goof luck with the op Mitch.
Nick Compton is saying that he wants to move out of his fathers shadow. Well my theory is then he should never have chosen cricket as a career. It is obvious that he will constantly compared with his father. You have to look no further than Liam Botham. He started to play at cricket for Hampshire 2nd XI aged 15 and in his first interview ( oh yes there was more media there than spectators!) he said he aimed to be better than his Dad. Famous last words and these were all too often quoted.Well sadly he wasn't and he went on to play Rugby!.
NORTH EAST WEATHER WATCH
Today has dawned cold wet and flipping miserable, I am now chuffing well sick of it. Where is the sunshine? where are days that do not having tons of water or worse still white stuff falling out of the sky. Well not usually anywhere near the North East of Blighty that's blinking well sure. So fashion watch for today is 17 layers if you dare. Hunters in the boot of the car/limo/Daimler. Hat scarf and gloves still needed.
On this day
20th March
1917 Dame Vera Lynn was born
1984 Fernando Torres born
1969 John Lennon married Yoko Ono in Gibraltar
And so with that I leave you all to trundle off to super swanky Lady Lainey office.to look pretty and to shout at the boys.
