Ian got two wickets today back to back
I was so sure it would be a hat trick but the last one was the end of the over and that kinda broke it up. Anyway he did bowl very well today!

My ticket has me on a 12 hour layover in Hawaii on the way
and 24 hours on the way back
life is rough!

It's been damn hot all weekend The kind of heat where you just don't feel like doing anything but lay around and eat cold fruit. I do love the summer fruits!

Not much to do in Honolulu but lie on the beach! I took the "tram" (it's really a bus) tour which was quite interesting - I got into an argument with the driver about labour unions! There was some strike on, that he commented on, and eventually the whole bus joined in. Most people assumed that because they were on strike, the unions must have broken their contract. Turned out that it was the employers who had. But he also made some interesting comments on the housing situation there - it is very expensive and you can only get public housing if you are unemployed - once you get a job you are kicked out and if you have no savings to pay the deposit on an apt, then you're homeless. It was 10 years ago, but I guess it hasn't changed.

That's a shame with all the tourist industry they have
and I bet the wages are low as!

I was grateful to that bus driver for showing me the underbelly of the 'tropical paradise'. Nobody else ever mentions it. I got so bored in Honolulu that I ended up in the library!!!

actually, if you get two wickets off the last two balls of the over, then your hattrick carries forward to the first ball of your next over, so there's still a chance. If I remember correctly, this also holds if it's the last two balls of an innings or a match.

one of these days He just might pull a hat trick off!

Hi! I'm still your fan, even though I haven't posted much in 2 years . . . Just to keep up the map (which is dynamic, I have noted; it increases momentarily . . .)

and wait a second
I'm your FAN! I've been bad about posting photos myself
just to busy. These maps update everyday, I think it's pretty cool!
