It's Sa(troy)day









As you will know by now I am never one to bow to my critics, but when besty Twitter friend The Duke of Adelaide commented yesterday about it being FRIDAY and not F(ryan)day (as it is every end of the working week,) I thought that I would dedicate today to him. So today Troy it is Sa( troy)day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And talking about his Royal Ryanness ( oh yes we were!) he was rested last night in the T20 clash against Nottinghamshire. Also the sad news came through that Jason Gillespie, top coach and top boy of the Tykes had sadly returned home to Australia for the funeral of his father Neil, who sadly passed away  on July 13th.. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Gillespie family at this sad time.

So to the score from last night is not a good one for all Tykes fans and means that we will not be dressing up this year in jolly bright colours for semi finals day or being sick with excitement on finals day  like last year. However the match ended with Yorkshire losing by 6 wickets and saw Samit Patel taking out the top order of Yorkshire cheaply, before Richard Pyrah fought back and pulled the Tykes back from 75-5 to 132-7. Sadly he fell to Patel too.
Notts qualified for T20 quarter finals and jolly good luck to them.

It will have been a sad  trip back up the M1 last night for The Vikings, but come on boys we still have Division One to take!!!! #coyt

Tomorrow I am off to see Durham Dinosaurs Dynamos play and hope that the forecast of  rain does not happen. However if Derbyshire are on their current form we might all be home at tea time after they recorded their lowest T20 score last night. They were beaten by Leicestershire by 79 runs, and  scoring only 72! The one and only Chesney Hughes only scored 5!!!

This morning I am going to do my 'bit' for charity and going to an open morning held by my former neighbours Sir Kevin and the fair Lady Hazel. They raise funds to give children Christmas presents who would otherwise go without.So as Sir Kevin's text to I Lady Lainey had the words 'bargains galore' it would be jolly flipping rude not to go!

Then I am off to Chateau Saltburn, to dip my feet in the sea, and go to Asda!!! And also try to have a decent nights sleep.

So best to get a wriggle on now, have a super Sa(troy)day.
