Watching the England v New Zealand 🏏 ODI on TV. It’s being played at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff, weather is fantastic and I’m wishing I was there. Trouble is that I’ve been to cricket matches in September that have been damp, cold and a bit miserable so didn’t bother to get tickets when they were on sale earlier in the year 😠
