FIRST ASHES TEST DAY 4

It is now Sunday evening and we have had a really good day at the cricket. England batted so steadily we only saw one wicket, but two centuries and a fifty which has changed the whole complexion of the match with any result now possible tomorrow. It was a labour of love for Fran to go in the first place but I think she genuinely enjoyed it - at  least the sewing was never brought out.

Drinks are on the way!

All the Aussies around us were very friendly and there was a great atmosphere. The English supporters just about outnumbered the Australians surprisingly.
