I am seriously considering going to watch Lancashire this year. I really missed my odd visits to Bristol and Cheltenham. It won't be the same of course, old Trafford is bloody horrible.

Chelmsford's nice. Admittedly you could get a capacity Chelmsford crowd in at Old Trafford and the place would look empty but that's neither here norr there.

Lancashire's outgrounds (Liverpool, Blackpool, Southport) are all pretty nice though. Lancashire's county championship win in 2011 (first outright win since the 1930s, too many games rained off most years) was in the season when Old Trafford was out of use and they didn't play a single match there.

As I posted several weeks ago (sometime in February to be exact), I qualified as an ECB Level 1 Umpire. Last week received my first appointments. Two in May, both school games, but on Saturday afternoons. and two in June in the Bristol and District League, also on Saturday afternoons. Hope for many more, it just appears that having said I was available on Saturdays and Sundays plus the evening of Monday to Thursday, that 4 appointments is a tad low. Still there is also my volunteer shifts at the ICC Women's World Cup in Bristol to look forward to.

Good luck, best to ease in don't you think?
Plus I would think you have to get a bit better known, could be a long haul.
Personally I found umpiring incredibly stressful. You had to pay attention, ALL the time :-).

So it turns out Essex vs Durham Uni was a three day game and I misread it. Are we still 'happy' it was a first class fixture?
