My optimism regarding Spring has gone-it has been chucking it down all week, windy and cold. I should have known, as the cricket season is just around the corner.
I am again thrust into the role of coach for Joe’s team. To the doubters of how appropriate that is, I will say-” I was not out, I did not touch it!”. Last seasons coach has moved on, as his son is in the selected team, so the baton is passed back to me. Not too many people falling over themselves to do it apparently. It should be easier than in the past in any case, as some the more difficult kids( and parents?) have moved to other teams or given up completely.
Go England!
ps. Lost money on the TAB last week-went for wins for NZ, Australia, SA and Argentina accumulator. However, got the quarter final predictions fo Air New Zealand Cup(provincial rugby) correct, and reduced losses.
Still thinking about betting on world cup semis-head over heart?
