Like I was never on holiday

Well the office was no different apart from server problems which meant that we could not work until nearly lunchtime yesterday. Trill Boy still didn't work then, we were entertained by Trill Family Holidays!

Big job in Bournemouth is taking off in big style which means lots of work for I, Lady Lainey and will mean lots of travelling for everyone concerned , which is not a day out I can tell you!

Luckily the cricket was fairing better than the computer equipment ( new I hasten to add) as England Lions  were  playing well in South Africa.
Both Robson and Lyth ( top Tyke) made centuries however Jonathan Trott was out for 6 on his return to international cricket after leaving the ashes tour last year. Too early for his return? only time will tell on that one.

England lions were  361-4 after 90 overs.

lots of twitter chat regarding Fatty Flintoff being 'mic'd' up during the BBL match were he was facing his old partner in crime, ;he who must not be named in the blog'.
In fact the consensus was that between Fatty, 'He who must not be named' and the Australian commentators a real 'love in' was occurring!

 I decided not to watch the match last night!

World Cup news is that Phil Simmons has decided not to make any changes to the squad. Interesting!


I visited besty friend Coutness Christine of Mc Nally last night and was greeted ( nearly knocked down flat) by the royal hounds. The countess had on Sunday have to rush one of the hounds ( Hector the 3 legged lurcher) to work with her as he had taken it upon himself to consume a whole pack of rum truffles. After some drugs to make him sick, he was on top form last night. not sure how he would have coped with being drunk, especially on 3 legs!

The other two hounds are good as gold, whilst Hector is proving to be a little horror.

Good news on the Dame Didi front is that she has managed to drive a couple of miles in the DD Daimler. Now we just have to get her to walk it!!!

well off to sort out Bournemouth...............and Birmingham and " jobs in London and ................well you get the drift!
