    England v Sri Lanka 2011

    Facking hell. I turn off TMS for half an hour and we start playing like a Nigel Worthington charity XI.

    Er, roll on Lord's. Who's on the OTF outing?

                    Friday, thanks to the good offices of Tubby. Hobbes & WoE there too, I believe.

                    I'll be there in body only for the final session, as I'll be chewing nails over how YMG will be getting on in his game against Worcester Park at the same time.

                          Ok. So what's he plan fro Friday then, chaps?
                          Having not been to the cricket for bloody years, what do I need to bring along with me? Are we picnicking or eating there etc?

                            Never been to Lords, but personally I'd favour a civillised lunch at somewhere nearby, rather than guzzling an inedible hot dog washed down with draughtflow filth.

                            I understand they can be a bit picky about people taking their own grub along, no?

                            Also where and when do we meet?

                              Never heard they are fussy with people bringing food in. Always done it myself.

                              Usually meet by the corner you come to first as you walk from St John's Wood.

                              Sri Lanka looked like they could have done with Slasher Mendis rather than Ajantha yesterday. He'd have flayed a quick 50.

                                  Bagsy being 12th man.
                                  If needed I shall bring my picnic rucksack, which has plates, wine glasses, cutlery etc.
                                  otherwise there are food places there I guess.

                                    PMs for the Lord's posse.

                                    Re picnics, for many years the effective booze limit to bring in has been 4 x 500 ml cans of yer favorite brew, or a bottle of wine.

                                      Liquid lunch eh? I like the cut of your jib, man.

                                        If it goes to a fifth day, I might be up for it, but I'm just madly busy at the minute so can't make Friday, alas.

                                          Right, well Tubby is providing me with tickets tomorrow so we need to sort out a meeting time and place for Friday morning.

                                            You're the man with the goodies, so it's your prerogative to say where and when.

                                              But I haven't been to Lords for years. I've no idea what time we should get there reasonably.
                                              I mean, if I'm going to a footy match I try to get there as it's kicking off. I don't know if that's fair game for cricket or whether we should be there at 10 or whatever.

                                              What we need is an experienced Lords-goer to help us out.

                                                Never been to Lords before, so I thought I'd check the official regulations: One bottle of plonk, or two pints of beer permitted

                                                This page also has my absolute favourite ground regulation ever:
                                                i. No betting (unless specifically authorised by the MCC Committee), unnecessary noise, or confusion of any kind is permitted in any part of the Ground.
                                                That's 90% of the MCC buggered, then.

                                                  ...or whose presence is a source of danger or annoyance to others
                                                  So that means we can get that cunt with the bugle chucked out then?
