Darlington

Jack smacking the ball towards the same fence that his father remembers well. Devastatingly powerful West Indian tyro Clayton Lambert once hit Jack's dad's well aimed fast-medium seaming inswingers clean over that fence - twice - in the the same over.

I'd like to balance that by claiming that Jack's Dad first dismissed English Test Champion Paul Collingwood (ex-Shotley Bridge) then hit him for four to win the match on this very ground 12 years ago. THIS is the story that the kids know about.


Thorp Perrow Arboretum. A visit to yet another mecca for environmental education.
