    Will you be going to watch Jacob? You must feel very proud. Himself loves cricket. The only Test we've been to together was at Trent Bridge. Always a lovely atmosphere at cricket, even the amateur sides. Himself played for years and we always went to the matches home and away on Saturdays and took the children. I usually ended up scoring. I hope the team does really well! Good Luck!

        Me and him have travelled the world following test match cricket and have even been on tele cos we were showing so much enthusiasm.
        Annual holidays got boring so we waved the flag with the Balmy Army. Never had so much fun.
        Good luck Jacob. How exciting

            I'd much rather watch a cricket match than golf (yawn yawn). I've been to Fillongley cricket ground a few times in the past..

              There is something quintessentially English about village cricket.

                Yer but... I used to like watching Pro/Celebrity Golf when I were a Nipper! I will also watch Golf when it's played at Augusta - the MOST beautiful Golf Course in the world!

                  Well Fillongleys dream ended yesterday Sessays came down from Yorkshire and beat Fillongley by 65 runs so well done to them and good luck at Lords in the final.
                  Fillongley will have to wait until next to rekindle the dream they had a go that is the main thing..jacob
