It's nearly the weekend

well  OK, its Thursday but at least it is only 14 working hours until the weekend for I,Lady Lainey.

It was a busy day for certain counties as overseas players were announced.

As added here on the blog at the last minute yesterday, Yorkshire have resigned  tiny Kiwi Kane Williamson for part if the season. He will be playing from 9th June to 18th July,  in all three forms of the game.
Will there be another addition to the Yorkshire family?
well, only time will tell.

Joy of joys!!!!!! Somerset have resigned Chris Gayle for the T20 season,
He should be OK being interviewed on Sky unless he tries to ask Nasser out on a date!!!
Maybe he should ask Steve Harmison, The Gayle boy will be so bored he'll be back in his mirror ceiling bedroom before you can say 'YA NAR'!!!
I wonder if there are many apartments/houses in the Taunton area with a pole dancing area and the aforementioned mirrored bedroom ceiling.
if you have one for rent best to contact Somerset CCC.

and then Lancashire, well they didn't name an overseas player but they did enter prove their sense of humour in a Twitter mix up.
They were contacted about blocked drains by a disgruntled Lancashire County Council tax payer.
They responded that they would 'get some players onto it, first thing'.
Well played to Lancs CCC for being such good sports.
The lady who had tweeted them in error , was to say the least in fits of laughter.

I also was contacted by El Presidenti of Middx CCC re our meetings this season.
Fristly in April.
then in July in Scarbados where we will be staying in the same hotel,
And then in September when I will be travelling to London to see 'My Tykes' and Harry and Blossom ( El Presidenti and the First Lady).

Oh I cannot wait to see them!!!

well best get myself ready as a busy day today.
Acupuncture at lunchtime and then getting the orange afro cut after work.

best head off .
Have a great Thursday and don't work too hard
