Hi Natan, good for them getting out and having fun. "The long walk" says it
all though. Middle stump knocked forward, bails on the pitch. No doubt the
keeper was adding a helpful comment such as 'tell your story walking'.

I do have a question for your batsmen.
Do their husbands play?  


Cheers
Geoff

One of the nice things about working in an EU institution with my background
is that I am regarded as "one of their own" by three distinct groups: the
Poles, the Scandinavians and the Brits. And so, I have become the
semi-official photographer for the office cricket team, The Intellectuals,
who usually lose their games but still have a good time. Last Saturday they
participated in a 20/20 tournament at a resort  120 km south of Alicante,
and I was on hand to document the action (such as it is, we are after all
talking about cricket):

Comments and critique welcome as always, even snide comments by the
contingent from Down Under ;-)
