Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

Think it was about 73/74. I went to St Margaret's which was just down the road and the school was given the afternoon off if they wanted to go to the cricket on the first day (it was a properly organised trip) and it was a beautifully sunny day. Yeah Greenidge was playing that day. Clive Lloyd too, who got the most fantastic reception when he came out to bat. Think he was out pretty much first ball to an Andy Roberts snorter. It was actually poetic justice for Roberts who got a huge amount of racist stick IIRC. Different times I guess.
Didn't know you were a St Margaret's boy! As I've told you we lived at the bottom of Beechwood Road by the prom so a very short walk to the cricket club. I can't remember when that match was but some of the players I saw there were brilliant. Apart from the ones already mentioned there was John Wright, Alvin Khallicharan, Mike Proctor, Faroukh Engineer, Barry Richards, Wasim Akram. So many. Also quite often used to see Peter Reid watching. he's a big cricket fan. Just sitting amongst the punters.

The daffs have all gone over by us Gwladys. But I'm reliably informed by one of my new best mates from the bus that the bluebells are just coming out. We get a really good showing at Carwinion woods on the outskirts of the village so next time we get a nice day I'll pop down there and get some photies.
 

I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about T ??
It's a TV service, you get all the channels of sky, BT and world wide stuff very very cheap, you can watch all the sports but it's piracy I guess. It is very popular though lots of people use it instead of paying the ridiculous fees for SKY etc. If I'm working I wouldn't have it but times are hard.

From searching the site I see @Joey66 uses it

My brother used to have something similar. I'd be too scared to get it cos knowing my luck I'd get caught.
 
Having a prawn salad for lunch with my own homemade marie rose sauce. I use low calorie salad cream in mine rather than mayonnaise, purely because I prefer the taste, and also add a touch of tabasco to give it a bit of a kick. No surprise there for those that know my culinary tastes. lol

Tonight I'm going to cook a sausage casserole, which is a first for me. I'll let you know how I get on.
