Next time you go running at Liardet, can you please look out for my kids’ football boots that got sucked under by the mud a few years ago.

Thanks

what is the point of playing the game if the wicketkeeper from the adjoining game does not double up as the forward short leg in yours?

Makes it easier to set a field if you can make use of neighbouring fielders. Or batsmen. There is a well-told story about a guy trying to play a shot at the same time a ball from the next game was bouncing down the pitch and hitting him on the pad.

Great pics Ben.

Cheers. I must remember to charge my batteries and clear my memory stick before the game tomorrow.

Interesting. Never occurred to me the few times I played there. But I was generally too busy arguing with the umpire. Like the time I was given out bowled after Mark had neglected to call the two previous leg-side deliveries wides. As if that somehow had contributed to my wicket.

Yep, those points slipped my mind.

What’s your issue with Liardet park by the way? Is it the way the surface sometime caves in, dumping kids into the landfill?

Liardet St is on my running route. I often see either touch or kirikiti played there of an evening.

Cheers. It’s amazing what you perceive when you pay attention to stuff you normally take for granted.

Great pics Ben.

Cheers,

You forgot to mention that McAlister Park is tucked in between the worst kids’ sporting park in Wellington (Liardet) and the worst location for an international rugby ground ever.

Despite all that I actually like McAlister; except in a Southerly.
