The weekend that was

I missed my son playing cricket this weekend.  On Friday, after work I had been asked to collect my son from a cricket meetup in Halstead and I was hoping to get to watch him play, however, while I got there in time to collect him, the games had just finished. 

The weekend involved my daughter going to a birthday party where she got to do some climbing and after she got back, she had to catch up on homework.  My son was amazing around the house and I did throw a few balls for him to bat away.  The deal is that if he is able to get it over the back garden fence, I will give him a pound (for his Pokémon GO account), but one ball was lost near the shed and the other one went over a fence, but to the side.  I have to say that I am impressed with how hard that he is able to hit it, especially as when this happened last, he got annoyed as I hit him twice (he did not block properly).

And of course, there was the England game, which I watched with Tony.  I knew that we had to win this to take off any pressure when it comes to playing Belgium, but I did not expect such a scoreline!
