Re: Frank Worthington

My wife’s claim to fame is that she sat next to his elder brother at Junior school and once chased Frank down the street for chucking stones at her.
Must dig out my signed copy of One Hump or Two.

I'm not sure they can sell you the tickets and then change the conditions of entry. I've got tickets for the Test match in August and I'm not expecting to need any kind of vaccine pass.
I agree I had tickets for last year and YCC were quick to refund so hopefully there won’t be a problem 🤞
