A happy-go-lucky English rambler dude goes to New Zealand for a year. Here he interfaces with some of those he left behind and details his nefarious activities. Or summat.

Hmmmm, i've just had to pop into work to sort out an mini problem with one of my apps, so i've got the chance to let you know about my Cricket performance tonight, which sadly broke new boundaries for crapness (The only boundary i was anywhere near to all night)

My bowling figures were: 2 overs, going for 17 runs off each, with each over consisting of 5 wides (2 runs each) and one ball on target in each over, which went for 7 runs both times. It's not easy to get hit for 7 off one ball (twice), but i managed it. However it was my batting that really let me down, scoring believe it or not, a sub-duck of -15, in a partnership of -9 with the plucky Grant who did his best to help me, but numerous run outs (-5 runs each) were my downfall. Also the fact that the other team were, rather rudely, bowling really quite fast. Michael, analysing the first ball i faced, said that i had, "swung at it after it had hit the netting behind you".

It was pretty good fun, but i can't help but feel England's & Leicester City's (I wore my LCFC shirt) reputation abroad would have suffered less if i had hung around here and written an in depth review of AI instead.....
