No not the houses of Lords, I mean the cricket place, it was a Twenty 20 World Cup warm up day. Which basically meant two games, firstly South Africa vs. Sri Lanka, followed up by England vs. West Indies.

As you would expect at any cricket related event there was a certain amount of beer involved, fuelled by the fact that we were going for my birthday celebrations.

Both games were relatively anti-climatic, West Indies didn’t bother letting Gayle bat which is a shame as he is one of the most exciting batsmen in the world at the moment. England did have their full team out though, and also had them out during the gap between games to warm up. Its cool to get up close and have a little chat with them.
