501 not out

So after three years we now have matched Brian Lara's highest ever first class innings total in terms of myspace friends. Thank you all. I may waste time posting something on peoples message boards.


In my entire cricketing career I think I have scored less that 501 runs in total, but as to our feat of Myspace friends, Brian Lara can't match that. He doesn't even have a myspace page. If you don't follow cricket this may not have made much sense to it. But then what do I say that does?

Noone Else: Living Draw

A friend of a friend dropped an email to me a few months ago asked for permission to choose a song as a backdrop to a Living Draw. This was an entirely new concept to me, but having had a look at what she'd done, I was pretty impressed, so gave the thumbs up.

Anyway the end result is now up - its a story about a piece of wood. I have to say I am pretty impressed by it - it left me feeling emotional at the end.

Cambridge Gigs In May

Victoria rushed into her daughters room, a smidgen of concern placed in
here mind by Becky's sobs having been what summoned her in the first place.

"Whats up?", she said, putting her arms around the straight haired 6 year
old.

"I got this months email send out from Karmadillo, and there was no news
about any gigs in Cambridge in there. I so wanted to see them."

Victoria let a wry smile, and bent her knees so her face was reassuringly
close for Beckys eyes to look back into. "Don't worry, thats just that
silly Rishi who keeps making silly mistakes when he does his sendouts.
Karmadillo *are* playing in Cambridge this month."

The sobs stopped - only paused though. There was still the hint that more
could come. "Really?"

"Yes, really, not once, but twice!"

"Thats great!" A smile, full of counterpointing joy to Victoria's wry one,
burst across her face. "When? Where?"

"Well one with the full band will be at The Cornerhouse on Wednesday May
13th - thats just a week away. The Cornerhouse, you know where that is
don't you?"

"Yes, next to the Renault garage, and near the Coldhams Lane - Newmarket
Road junction", replied Becky, showing off her precociousness at city
Geography that many couldn't believe any 6 year old could have possessed.

"And the other one is on the Friday 15th of May at CB2 on Norfolk Street -
thats a Love Music Hate Racism gig, but that will be quieter and acoustic.
Are you happy now?"

"Yes I am!" replied Becky. "Rishi is silly for fogetting to put those on
his last email wasn't he?"

"Yes, he was. But at least we can go to http://karmadillo.org whenever we
want more information about that fantastic band."
