Cricket's not a good game for 4 00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:14,880 Speaker 1: me at the moment. Guys had an absolute disaster day yesterday. 5 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:19,239 Speaker 1: Junior cricket. Right at the end of the season. Right 6 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:24,439 Speaker 1: Lenny's playing under twelves and he's doing quite well Sunday morning. 7 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 1: Who decides to put on a cricket game at eight 8 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: o'clock Sunday mornings. That's the problem with cricket, mate, It 9 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 1: goes for so long at that level. How does it work? Well, 10 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 1: it's that they have thirty overs each and then the 11 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,600 Speaker 1: kids can go in. They bat for twenty balls and 12 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 1: then you retire, and if you're not out, then everyone 13 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:46,239 Speaker 1: gets out. You can go back in and you can 14 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 1: bat again. Everyone gets around about three or four overs each. Okay, 15 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: bowling as well like it is. It's a great game. 16 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 1: But yesterday when you have to get up early, and 17 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 1: I just wanted to go and do a bit of 18 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: a workout first, So I went to the gym, come 19 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 1: back a little bit late, grab Lennie, take him to 20 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,919 Speaker 1: the wrong oval and so we rock up five minutes 21 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,959 Speaker 1: before the start of play, right, and the coach is going, 22 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 1: hurry up, fits he because Lenny's opening the batting and 23 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: we're in first Lenny goes out. I throw one ball, 24 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 1: one practice ball on him, just to get him going. 25 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: He goes out there, fourth ball, duck out comes back 26 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 1: in blames me, of course. Right then I go, all right, well, 27 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: Lenny's out now, so I've got a bit of time 28 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: up my s leavia while everyone else bat. So I 29 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 1: take the dog. I took the dog, Beastie with me 30 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: for a walk, throw his ball. The ball goes down 31 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: a hill, onto the road into a drain. Right, so 32 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: I've lost the dog's ball with the first throw. Then 33 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: I walk the dog around the oval to where all 34 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 1: the parents are. Then he decides to respond with me 35 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: throwing the ball down the drain by leaving a gift 36 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: in front of everyone. I don't have bag, right, so 37 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: then I'm using a piece of paper to pick up 38 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,799 Speaker 1: the turd to put it into the bin. Right then 39 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: I decide right n Lenny's team finishes batting, they get 40 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: out for forty they've been flogged, they get absolutely rinsed. 41 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: They're out for forty runs. The other team come in 42 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 1: and I thought, well, they're taking their time to get 43 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: the runs here, so I might go and get a 44 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: coffee and some brecky. So take the dog to get 45 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: some coffee and brecky. The game as I left, the 46 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: other team got the runs really quickly and decided they 47 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: didn't want to keep batting anymore, so the game sort 48 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 1: of finished early. I get back to the over and 49 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: Lenny's one of the only kids left there. The game 50 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: was over because Dad's decided to go get some brecky. 51 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 1: I said, I'm so sorry, mate, he's Nellie crying. He's 52 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 1: going where have you been? I said, I'm so sorry, mate. 53 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,799 Speaker 1: Get in the car, jump onto the highway. As soon 54 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,959 Speaker 1: as I get on the highway, Lenny goes to me, Dad, 55 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 1: where's your deck chair? So I couldn't get back off 56 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,639 Speaker 1: the highway. I had to drive fifteen minutes. I had 57 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: to drop fifteen minutes before I could do a yui 58 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: and get back on the highway to get back, get 59 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: all the way back to the oval, and as I 60 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: arrive in the car park at the oval, Lenny's coach 61 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: texts me and goes, by the way, I've got your 62 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 1: chair I'll give it to you, train and choose that. 63 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: I was going to say no one else would take 64 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: it because it's got Frisey written on the back of it. 65 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 1: So Tommy, I'm going to drive to Backyard Cricket.
