I'm at a loss how people can't go without food or drink for a couple of hours.

I had drinks in 7 pubs yesterday and a bag of Beef Space Raiders prior to the match.

A pint in the New Brewm was £2.

No need to use the catering on the ground.

Spurs playing out from the back created them having.attacking options.

Burnley playing out from the back created Spurs having attacking options.

Passing within our own six yard box from goal kicks just invites trouble.

We need to learn. Quickly.

Can you keep the sponsor and get a better shirt?

Southport.

Dressinggown

House lost at home to Rochdale in a game reduced to 22 overs a side. How the ground staff managed to get a game on was remarkable given that the pitch was a lake on Saturday night. Surprisingly, nearly 300 runs were scored on a wicket that was described as a 'bog' (they had to change the wicket befo...

The kitchen staff left a trolley full of food unattended at the back of the Bob Lord during half time. Such is the reputation of our catering that there was no rush for the free food on offer. So, I took the opportunity but quickly realised that stuffing prawn Vol au vents into my coat pocket was no...

I have a Canon Powershot SX60 HS Bridge camera but rarely use it apart from holidays ... (even then 90% of pictures I take with my phone) ... I changed my S9+ Samsung for a Samsung S23+ earlier this year and gave my Mrs the S9+ ... The S23+ camera is an absolute corker ... The phones will only get ...

My photos above were taken using a phone (Google Pixel 6). I have had to compress the files as the originals were far too big. Then I looked at the performance data and the phone came back with some astonishing numbers. One of the pics was took at f1.9. 1/1885. 6.81mm. ISO 42. I have a compact digit...

Padiham

Dressinggown

It's been a bit of a strange season for the House. We've won 2 more games than any other side up to now, however we've struggled get the additional 2 points by bowling the opposition out. Darwen have 8 more bowling points than us and should go into the last 3 games as slight favourites. It's tight t...

Littleborough fully deserved their win at the House this afternoon.

Batting first the home side built a solid platform and then it went pear shaped after a delay for rain.

It was a bit of a walk in the park for the visitors with their pro doing his job.

Well done to the Boro.

Aged 13 (I looked about 10) on a school trip staying at a Chateau in Normandy. A small group of us 'escaped' and crossed farmland to a tiny bar in the middle of nowhere. Upon arrival it was a case of who dared to go in and order the beers. Someone drew the short straw and went in whilst we sat nervo...

Traffic building up at Junction 8 (Padiham) Eastbound on the M65 at 5:30 pm today. Other lanes looking slow.

Prepare for a bit of disruption on Friday.

Don't rule out Bootleggers. Decent pint of Directors.

New Brewm - Full range of Reedley Hallows beers at £2.50 a pint on matchdays. What's not to like?

How did it go?

Oooh Nathan Redmond?

I'll get my coat.

The Boot, Bootleggers, New Brewm, The Bridge, the 3 bars on Bank Parade, The Royal Dyche and then a swift one in the 110 Club.

Another shout for Evuna on Deansgate.

Albert's Shed is smart with a location next to the canal and has a large outdoor area for alfresco dining during the Summer months. Solid menu and good service.

The Award Winners should have been the poor souls who turned up to watch that s*it.

You cannot rely on one approach to every scenario that Test cricket throws at you.

We are still 2-0 down in the series.

Dressinggown

Twists and turns.

This is not Test Cricket.

Can batters not leave a ball once in a while?

The whole shebang has me at a complete mental standstill.

Hope the weather holds off but I can see the majority of games will be affected by the rain at some point this afternoon.

House are at home, taking on Norden in the Worsley Cup semi final.

The wheels truly came off the Lowerhouse wagon today at Rammy. Chasing 162 it should have been a walk in the park. However,we contrived to chuck wickets away. Two of our top order managed to get caught behind playing that stupid reverse sweep. The rest could barely hit the ball off the square. This ...

House rarely put the opponents to bat if we win the toss.

Today, we restricted many runs by virtue of our fielding set up.

It was squeaky bum time at the end but we managed it well and took the points.

This series will be the template of how test cricket is played in the future. There are big differences in approach from both sides but neither contemplated a draw at any point. A full house at Edgbaston on a Tuesday speaks volumes as to the resurgence of Test cricket when the shorter forms of the g...

A full Edgbaston could prove again to be our 12th man tomorrow. The Hollies Stand will be bouncing.

In addition, the good old English weather might be a godsend for our seamers.

Lowerhouse proved too strong against Ramsbottom in the Worsley Cup this be afternoon. Haasbrook was pick of the batters with 121 as the home side posted 280 odd. Rammy got off to a decent start until their pro was out. They then capitulated and we're all out for 164 with Paddy Martin doing the busin...

Overall, the Aussies seem to have the better of the bowling attack. Our lack of a top class spinner could be an issue but Moeen offers much more with the bat than Leach. There is the factor that the visitors might want to go toe to toe with our new brand of cricket which could play into our hands. H...

I've stayed in some right dives and hovels over the years. However: In the late 90's (I think) a few of us stayed in Blackpool after a Burnley game. We did a B&B. The cost for a night was £14 which should have raised some alarm bells from the outset. A dozen of us were split between 3 'family rooms'...

Apart from the result it was a good day out.

I recall the FA Cup tie at Bury. As a kid you would do anything to be there. That meant sitting in car in a pub carpark for 2 hours whilst my Dad and his mates were in the hostelry. It was the first time I had sat in a stand to watch a match. Me and my dad were used to standing up on the Bee Hole En...

We keep hoping that the Pro will come good with the bat.

It's a pity that I missed what sounds like a good game. Another last baller after the one at Littleborough last weekend. However, I've no regrets at missing East Lancs. A grim place, completely lacking any atmosphere. In addition, the climb up Dukes Brow from the station is a killer. Forecast is for...

House grabbed a win at Littleborough this afternoon. It was a new ground for all of us. Although some rumours exist that Lowerhouse had played them a few decades ago in some interleague tie. We got completely lost on the way to the ground.from a pub near the train station. We thought the faster walk...

Leisure. I did offer to get you a pint. I think that your polite decline was based on the fact that if it was my choice of beverage you would be incapacitated for a number of weeks, if not months. As for the cricket the visitors got a good start with the bat but got a bit bogged down until the bloke...

I might even buy Leisure a pint.

Possibly.
