Cricket

"The Cricket Inn" in 1957

"The Cricket Inn" is a pub-restaurant  located on the southern perimeter of the city of Sheffield - in a small suburb called Totley Bents. Passing by it is a pleasant feature of my regular suburban circuit - the circular walk I made up over thirty years ago. Usually it starts at Shotts Lane and half way round there's "The Cricket Inn" seen across a grassy recreation ground. Once it was just a drinks- led public house but it has kept pace with the times and transformed itself into a food-led gastro-pub.. It appeals to affluent inhabitants of the south west section of the city - Dore, Totley, Ecclesall, Fulwood, Nether Edge and Whirlow and it is busy every weekend.

Anyway, the purpose of this post is not to explain the game of cricket but simply to share with you six pictures of "The Cricket Inn" I have taken over the years...

Rest

 PT lessons

I’m learning to rest

I’m learning my body

I’m loving my body

I’m not cursing what my body can’t do, but amazed at what it can do

In almost forty years, I’m learning and cherishing. What a gift.

Pants

 Once you are on a roll, things have a tendency of moving on at their own pace.

I’m thinking of the Queen Mary’s stopping length, here but the same can be thought of holes in underpants.

Last night I found a hole in my underpants .

I was in the bathroom and this sort of thing happens , so irritated I threw the underpants out of the window onto the patio, to be retrieved  later to put in the bin by the back door.

Now galvanised , as I warmed  to my task, I had a quick check of my undercrackers drawer and found four more gusset challenged sets all with holes in and threw them on the patio too.

This seemed sensible to me as I often throw used bleach bottles, empty shampoo bottles etc out on the patio to be retrieved later for recycling.

At 9 am there was a knock at the back door and Trevor’s gardener stood there wanting to know how he was. 

Nothing was mentioned about the five pairs of underpants lying on the patio
