Although in theory it should be 'Richie' day as the sad news today is that Richie Benaud has passed away.
His voice was one the most memorable in cricket commentary and will be very sadly missed.
He made his final commentary in the UK in 2005 but continued working in Australia until 2013.
who will ever forget his one liners? especially
'And Glenn McGrath dismissed for two, just ninety eight runs short of his century'
Very sad news, but at 84 no one can say that he hadn't had a good innings.
RIP Richie.
A quick whip around the University matches today as Yorkshire drew there match with Leeds/Bradford. Which was OK in my books as they fielded a very young team with only a few first team players.
Durham beat Durham University, and the banner on the website, 'Durham outclass students' well to be honest they are the pro's and have a lot more experience under their belts. And they played all their 'big guns' too.
So its nearly the weekend and thoughts are turning to what I have to get done now.
Well the garden needs to be well and truly tidied up which I may start this evening. along with the usual washing and 'stuff'
I am also thinking that if the weather changes as they are predicting then I might just do the decorating in mon boudoir. And that's another job ticked off my list.
I will also be keeping abreast off all things Yorkshire on Sunday as His Royal Ryanness starts his onslaught to the 700 wicket total. He starts the season on 665.
So now to get through F(ryan)day.
have a good one!
