I don't like Cricket ...

... I LOVE IT!

As we unoacked the house from the renovations, I discovered a cheapy cricket set I had bought last summer for the kids. They hadn't paid much atttention to it, and it ended up in the cellar. This year, Josh LOVES it! It brings with it a little pathos, as my Dad loved cricket, so clearly Joshie has inherited this from him.

However much I enjoy playing with Josh, it has become a little wearing when every waking moment is asked to play cricket ... ;-)

Here is practicing his bowling on the common - another gorgeous late August afternoon.
