baby! Do you have adequate drainage? Prior to landscaping, our back garden was concrete paving slabs from top to bottom. In heavy rain, the bottom patio would flood quite alarmingly as we had a single drain for the entire garden. Since landscaping, it is 80% lawn and flower beds, and has yet to flood as it soaks it up. Currently it's all lawn and flower bed with a small patio, the plan is to dig out around half the lawn and extend the patio into this. Should be ok for drainage. I hope. |

What are the thick wavy, almost cloudlike, lines on the field close to the Lord's wicket? Pilled out your mind again? |

With George Ezra headlining it's probably for the best.

Lords has a fungal infection.
It's been there 2-3 years.
Something of a surprise they haven't got rid of it. The infection, not Lords
It doesn't look very good for a major sporting arena.

2 - 3 years for a fungal infection doesn't sound that long.

Wimbledon final is an epic. Wish it was over so I could turn over to the cricket.

I've got the tennis on the tv, the cricket on my phone, BOTW on the switch and various extended family members arguing about nonsense.

I believe there's a very good argument for sharing the cup if the Super Over is tied ...

Genuine question, what are the criteria for resolving that tie? Did it not matter that eng were all out but nz had spare wickets?

Number of boundaries scored in the match proper. Then there are other criteria after that to resolve a tie. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Over |

I'm going to count back uses of the word 'cunt' by both posters over the last 12 months to resolve the issue of whose explanation should be regarded as victorious. It's a method known as the 'Duckworth Lewis Super Cunt-off'.

Provisionally, though, thanks to both for the explanation.
