When I met my husband he was a speed demon and racing was his sport so I dropped the golf. I do have to give him credit for trying the golf but he just moved too slow for him. Oh what we women do for our men. I love the land of castles. Enjoy the games.<br />QMMAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04721708092323894355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050717887740211904.post-16749358582978560102012-07-28T17:13:30.788+01:002012-07-28T17:13:30.788+01:00A most energetic post this week Bob.

It is a cracking boundary line at the Bamburgh pitch but even a benign game of cricket doesn't take away the immense power of the castle walls.Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00253875352864018195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1050717887740211904.post-1640470053223112232012-07-28T16:45:07.137+01:002012-07-28T16:45:07.137+01:00Bob, as always, you give us a wide variety of phot...Bob, as always, you give us a wide variety of photos ... sounds like your girl is quite an athlete. <br /><br />I've never been to a cricket game before.
