Had the day off work today as MFI were starting work on re-fitting our bedroom. The fitter has made good progress but wasn't impressed by our Earl Grey tea....."Sorry mate, I couldn't drink it". A productive morning saw me visit Tesco, get my hair cut (much needed....when I awoke this morning there was enough hair on my head to cover 12 small children) and stock up on nuts and seeds for the bird table. I may live to regret the latter as by late afternoon there were no less than three squirrels circling the garden. A photo of one of them bothering our new ground feeder is attached below.

I'm travelling into Cambridge soon for my first net session of the new season. As I write I am dreaming of playing cover drives like Michael Vaughan. In reality I'll probably struggle to get to sleep tonight having played like Frankie Vaughan.
