    [Cricket] ICC Cricket World Cup 2023- Final- India v Australia

    Was it De Kieviten in Wassenaar? I played there as a junior. Think the cricket team folded in 2008 as they re-laid the grass pitches as astro for hockey.

    [Travel] Help needed with decision on which flight to book

    Done German football weekends a few times. Have a look at flights from London City to Dusseldorf. Then stay in Dusseldorf rather than Dortmund. Just get the train on game day as the travel will be included in the ticket price. Dusseldorf is a great city, Dortmund doesn't have that much to offer.

    Euro Disney Evacuated

    Does appear to be the case that any event has massive police and army presence. Was at a local event in Cabourg in Normandy and there were road blocks, armed police and soldiers all over the event. Was really nothing more than a summer fete. Very noticeable presence all round.

    Trainers

    Love buying trainers. All about Adidas Originals for me, 27 pairs of them, topped up with a few other brands. About 35 pairs in total. Cupboard space is now the biggest issue for future purchases.

    Snowdon

    Went up there on Tuesday with people from work. Did the Miners Track. Took just under 5 hours round trip. It does get quite steep in places and would recommend some training before you go. But if you take is easy and go at your own pace then no reason why you won't get up there. The views are...

    Holiday advice please - northern France / Southern Belgium

    Have been to Belle Dune a few times. Would seem to tick your boxes but you need to check the opening times for the pool. Not sure it opens fully untill July. If you can try and secure a property near the outdoor pool. And if you're into it take your golf clubs. The course is fantastic.

    Gerald...RIP

    He also umpired a lot for Steyning as well in recent times. Bloody awful umpire but always there and happy to do it. Will be a loss to the local cricket scene. RIP.

    walking to the amex?

    I walk from Fulking sometimes. Up the Dyke, over Saddlescombe, over the A23, follow the path up the side of the A27, accross Dithling Road and then down through the woods through Stanmer Park. About 9.5 miles, takes just under 2 hours. Well earned pie and a pint at the ground after that. Only...

    Anyone with first hand knowledge of a European ski-resort which currently has good snow?

    Just got back from Chamonix yesterday. The sun is really starting to have an impact. The lower slopes are starting to show signs of grass and mud and serious slush from mid mornning onwards but up high things are holding up ok. If I was heading out again I'd look for Tignes or Val D. Think they...

    Furthest walk to the Amex on a matchday?

    Finally having a dry Saturday I walked from Fulking to the Amex. Just under 9.5 miles via the Dyke and Saddlescombe. Took about 2 hours. Uni sports centre came in very handy as a place to have a shower and get changed before heading into the ground.
