It's an awful pun relating to the bee swarm
Ah ... I had a swarm of bees outside my house once and I had to find a bee keeper to take them away. A kid down the road asked him, 'Are they wasps?' to which he replied, 'No, son. You don't find many wasp-keepers'. A neat one-liner.
 
Wants to try playing at Dawdon then ......

I played at Dawdon from being a young lad until I left the area for work. Never troubled by bees but it could be bloody cold. You got some stick if you mentioned it in the home dressing room. It will be like playing in the West Indies with all those buildings around it now!

Been twice this season

Frozen both times
 
Only time I've been to CLS (until Monday. Say hello to a lad in the "north east terrace" in a Barbados cricket top and a Windies cap if you see me ;)) it was 30 odd degrees. Day 2 or 3 of the Championship match against you in 2015. Think Bresnan got ton (how times have changed :eek:)

30? I dream of a 30.
 
I can see why people are against it don't get me wrong, but as someone who doesn't like Michael Vaughan I am canny chuffed a high profile players had called him out for his constant bull shit, the blokes and utter gobshite, regardless of if we had lost every game we played in the world cup or not

Really hope the Bangers beat the Paks.. Bangladeshi lads are a good bunch, never met a bad one...can’t say the same about the paks
Absolutey loved being in amongst em at the New Zealand game, but they're not hot on cricket etiquette (moving during the over, jumping up as the bowler runs in etc).

Also got a catchy anthem too, the Bangers

If I've learnt one thing from the World Cup, it's that "cricket etiquette" is very much an english thing. Sat with some great lads mind. Even the (unfairly) much maligned indians were decent crack at OT. All decent lads except the crims. Had some typical motormouth aussie tosspots behind me at the SL game at the Oval spewing out hilarious "ben'nar" all f***ing game. Even attempted "cricket's coming home" but contrived to get the tune and rhythm completely wrong.

Aye, played a lot of club cricket with and against Bangladeshi lads, made some real lifeling friendships with a few. A different breed from Indians and Pakistanis, very humble. If England don't make the semis, I'm supporting the Tigers.
