Well, it comes as a bit of a suprise to me that big bro got in so early with his 'help me moderators' post , as it seems he's been running a day late all week.Donut called me on my mobile on the 18th of December last year as i was doing my xmas shopping an told me he had ordered 4 tickets for the 2nd day of the England v India test match to be held at Lords the home of Cricket.
so it was with great excitement that 7 months later on the 26th of July (My birthday ) that Donut ,myself and 2 friends , all who had taken the day off work to attend ,arrived at Lords , found our turnstile and handed our tickets to the steward , and then it happend .....one of those tumbleweed moments , accompanied by a voice in slow motion...."THESE TICKETS ARE FOR YESTERDAY SIR " I span around in an embarassed daze to see the other 3 standing in the middle of the road , having recived some of the same at their turnstiles , and Donut doing some sort of Ali shuffle , not knowing where to hide and mumbling something like where shall we go then , where shall we go then ,in the form of some religious chant which in it's high pitchede state would have made anything i was saying about 'never going to cricket again 'inaudiable to the human ear.
After the laughter and insults had dieddown we were lucky enough to get some more tickets and enjoyed a fine days cricket and evening session in Donuts local where I think his error may have been mentioned once
