I don't think I can handle this, I'm going to have to go buy a serious amount of alcohol at the tea interval icon_frown.gif </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I've only had one can, and I've just remembered I've got no petrol and apparently, they're queuing all around, so I've got to top up on that during Tea. icon_frown.gif

THE most attacking field - a standard 7-2 offside field - usually consists of a backward square, and a wide mid on.

No fine leg then??

Fine leg & mid-on??

Forward short square-leg & mid-on??

aye, they do. but you don't set a field for french cuts.

you got seven on the offside, you're bowling for a caught behind/slip cordon. nothing else.

If the queues are anything like what they were this morning round our way, you'll not get that done during tea icon_biggrin.gif

A bit of something to get us in the right mood:

We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving,
