In reply to Bert. Hope it was a grab bag. We love whoever came up with the term grab bag. Conjures such gloriously animalistic images.

I’m hoping we might be able to use the Umpire strikes back during the Oval Test when wee Warner has a temper tantrum and pushes an official over.

Why is Bert being so coy about his crisps? Do they contain endangered species like the Newt and Mangleworzel flavour that Aldi pulled from the shelves this week?

Is that the best match report headline ever?

In reply to Chuck. But what kind of crisps, Bert? Your public demands to know.

In reply to Chuck. At Trent Bridge on Day 1, where I was, we had crisps.

In reply to Chuck. Give us the component parts of the picnic one by one with those least likely to induce envy first. If we reach a tipping point where it becomes unbearable, we'll stop you. At this point you can inform us how many more foodstuffs you have to list and we can marvel at the implications of this.

But it is exactly that – the delights of the picnic – that I so look forward to reading about in great detail, Ged. I couldn’t give an arse about your … arses.
