In a few moments we begin the thrashing over an urn just six inches high—

I may be a few days in the wilderness, just to be social— I have no idea as to how long— a day or two most probably but with the prospect of a long rail journey tomorrow, there’s bound to be something which catches the eye.

I always carry a pen.

I’ve a few pieces just about finished— they’re there or there abouts, so if I have time I’ll get them typed and up; I’ve tangents to fill after all and I’m not in the habit of leaving things unfinished.

It is a pity— I had hoped not to miss a day.

But in-case I do, I really would appreciate it if you didn’t go anywhere…

Thanks chaps!

It’s time for The Ashes…
