Yes a lovely ground. I had a quick chat with Boycott once. He was at third man, happy to talk to anybody, and he was in his "you only get picked for England if you go to the right school" mood, about 1985 or 86 I think. I was not a fan though. Some good pubs in the city.

It was the start of the local cricket today hence the end of the lovely weather, although it hasn't mattered of course. Clubs are talking about getting youth cricket underway as soon as restrictions are eased.

I am sorry that my typo led to some speculation, some ideas closer to the truth than others........but it seems I will have to give you a clue:

Grunger perhaps, unknown pace and crazy, right? (3,6)

Not a great clue but might help

tyke, jigjag

2 good guesses.

In my clue I was trying to describe myself doing my daily exercise round the park, many laps dancing as I go. I think you both described the answer earlier very well!

I was relieved to hear that your 'lap dancing' was completely wholesome. I'm sure you're dancing with joy, celebrating your brief spell in the great outdoors. Just look out for people armed with measuring sticks, pikes.

Thanks. I knew you would get it, but I'm sure Tyke and jigjag thought it was the other version (which I've never done nor will I be doing).

I am going out now, and will take your advice to avoid all the devices that others have been using increasingly lately.

I`m pleased you`ve ended the speculation, I trust you weren`t offended by my suggestion and hope you`ve enjoyed your walk/dance/perambulation!

It may be an instruction to your erm..."client" - pay dancer!

Absolutely nothing wrong with paying dancers - members of the Royal Family have been doing it for years (allegedly!)

I enjoyed Sir Geoffrey batting for Yorks & England but I also remember, with sadness, the `troubles` - when YCCC was virtually torn apart by his ardent supporters. When members voted on GB being appointed President of the Club I was one of the `109` who voted against.
