Listening to a bloke from Essex singing “Bring him home” with a serious wobble on. Blazing hot sunshine accompanied by greasy fish and chips and a pint of Oranjeboom. Lovely Jubbly. Didn’t realise how sweet Oranjeboom tasted…. Never been stood up by a bloke before!!! Got me imaginary friend with me for a little banter 🙂

Not a good start. Pettini out for 8 🙁

Woman’s comment in the crowd : ‘so the White thing around the edge is the boundary then?’ Well sharp 🙂

As the sun dips down, Essex Eagles have posted a tidy score of 204 for 4. 6s and 4s smashed around the ground.

So it turns out the “sweet” pint of Oranjeboom was in fact a pint of Thatcher’s Gold Cider. The first pint of cider I have drunk in over 10 years!!!

Excellent bowling start by Essex, 3 for 2. Hurrah!!

Gladiators all out for 82 in 13 overs!!!
