Booking in, possible all nighter

Haha predictable. The selections have been shocking over the years and it hasn't changed even with the new management etc. Gillespie will again do the same as before and time again be selected. Have the selectors no brains? Mills who looked semi-promising vs. the always expensive pie thrower Gillespie. .... argh. Thats my fustration out I think. Now he'll probably take a five-for and get selected for another 5 expensive tests until he gets another 5 for.
EDIT: You lied haha. Good joke. I am thankful that this is not the actual case.

It's the aforementioned 12 1/2 hours straight cricket day and i'm booking in too for the long haul. Should be gun but i'll doze off at some point for sure.

It always reminds me of Port Elizabeth.. Weatherwise too, usually quite windy.. I'd love to go there and watch cricket but by the looks of it I'd be the only one there!****, looking at Napier makes me homesick. Always love this time of year in Napier.

Good to see, to be honest I'm enjoying the NZ stuff most of all.. I get tense watching SA and Aus, and we're on a hiding to nothing down there, and England v India doesn't interest me.. Deffo looking forward to this NZ test

It's great for an ODI. The embankment rocks.
I've seen about 5-6 ODI's there over the years.

Do you have our equivalent of "Castle Corner" (IE an outdoor grass bank bar where everyone gets drunk)

The last couple of times I have gone, I have been in the stand with my Dad, unfortunately.
Can't really remember the bar situation on the embankment. I was always a good boy at the cricket, only having a few beers.
Maybe just a beer tent.
