It was a beautiful afternoon on 'The Rectangle', as the crowd gathered to witness yet another mammoth battle between England and Australia, in their continuing struggle for The Peyrot Ashes.
England opened the batting, and made a magnificent score of 70 runs for 1 wicket. Australia replied with a slightly disappointing 3 runs; all out. England won the match handsomely.
When The (Peyrot) Ashes will again be up for grabs, we are not sure, but the trophy will be kept here until another fixture can be arranged.
In the meantime, well played both teams; if only England's adult team could summon the same spirit.
A pity about the Aussies score. I am sure it was enjoyed by all.
ReplyDeleteYes, all good fun.
DeleteYou all seem to be having fun.
ReplyDeleteIt's been terrific fun having them all here at once; it doesn't happen often.
DeleteI imagine you are having a lot of fun seeing your children all together as well as the grandchildren.
ReplyDeleteQuite tiring too.
DeleteThe children will have such wonderful memories of their holidays in France.
ReplyDeleteI do hope so. They've certainly managed to fit a lot into a short time.
DeleteGreat fun.
ReplyDeleteOnly a couple of days left now, and we'll be 'almost' alone again.... my youngest has decided to stay in his house for a while.
DeleteLove it.
