Poor Kiwi's

It wasn't even a fair match really. When it was 5 out for 20 runs we knew it was going to be a walk over. Thankfully the crowd was so bored and annoyed with their teams (lack of) progress that they sent on about 5-6 pitch invaders. They were very funny and watching them get taken down with some flying tackles was great entertainment. I don't think they should be fined, they should be paid money for keeping us entertained!

Overall though we had a good day. I sat in the sun for 6 hours, had a couple of beers, got quite a lot of stuff thrown at me (though not nearly as much as last time) and had a pretty enjoyable day really. It's just a shame the match was such a walkover, I would really have loved to have seen a good well fought victory instead of the walkover it was.

Here's the match report if you're interested.
Sunday Morning Update: Here's the best quote from the New Zealand Herald this morning about the match: "Lee was difficult to see coming out of the flimsy sightscreen at the ASB Stand end but he could have been bowling watermelons decked with bells and flashing lights and the top order would still have struggled to pick it up. "

I nearly didn't get to go, my customer has had a lot of issues on their network. I'm going in tomorrow for 5-6 hours to keep working on the fault, I've got the big guns to help me now (the guys who manufacter the equipment) so hopefully we'll come away tomorrow with the problems all sorted for good and my customer will be happy.

Whew! That's all, I'm we're so tired! I think it's from sitting in the sun for so long, we wore lots of sunscreen but it still seems to sap the live out of you.

Goodnight!
