Mm Links May 2013 Week 2

[BigMac]

This is 'Big Mac' returning with week two of the May MM Links malarkey.

We approach summer (seem to have by-passed spring) and colleagues talked longingly last week about getting the barbecues out at the weekend. I thought of them as I walked through the hailstorm last Saturday afternoon heading to work.

The office was – of course – quiet and I could listen to the football reports without disturbing anyone else. Failing to avoid clichés like the plague, there was a roller-coaster of emotion as the second automatic promotion spot was decided in the football league Championship – real nail-biting stuff.

Thursday saw the start of the England Lions v New Zealand XI cricket match, with England captained by Joe Root and joined by fellow Yorkshireman Jonny Bairstow in the team. Good to see that the county side hasn’t been weakened by their loss, with both Balance and Rashid scoring centuries in the first innings against Somerset this week – and Root hitting his own ton for the Lions against New Zealand yesterday.

It really is a difficult time of the year for the armchair sports fan, as the winter and summer sports collide in the calendar. And much as I love sport, was there a little too much coverage of a minor managerial change in Lancashire on Wednesday? I almost missed the Queen’s Speech!

The game will close at the usual time of 7pm.
Unfortunately, you will have to wait a while to get the results as I will be unavailable for the earlier part of this evening.
It will probably be after 10 pm before they are available.
