Sunday special
Workmen meant to turn up at 11am Sat; try 5.30pm..wanted to go to an exhibition.
So quiet Sat night and Sun was the day out. Clocks went back but was up 8.30am. Initial balls up; Mely was going to turn up later to Tesco Wine Show so i thought i'd go by bus and still get there for 12.15/12.20pm. Wrong; it took an hour and 35 mins to get to Olympia. But when i got there was told Botham's in the house. Ruddy faced he candidly talked about getting wine poisoning in New Zealand, what he would get up to in Test Match rest days. He's not interested in food/wine matching; said have what you like. Still an old style rebel; wish Ian Chappell was there so that they could have a scrap once again. But Sean Fitzpatrick was there as his cohort; and like all New Zealanders told an engaging story.
The show finished at 4pm; wanted to go for dinner. Comedy i could've left; if you're in the front row and get heckled you might as well go to Wonkei's. I came up with some quips and a comic said 'Leave the jokes to me'. The comedy i'd seen on BBC Asian Network Sat night was superior; helps the comic timing. Was nice to be out Sun night in town.
