Glorious sunshine into the long evening? Check! Cucumber sandwiches? Check! The THWACK of leather on willow? Check! Pimms and lemonade? Check! Beer or cider afterwards? Check! It’s got to be cricket?

Or am I missing something? 😃

Thalia was a scheming, conniving, gold-digger who used Dobie as a chew toy. But she was about a dozen times hotter than Cricket.

Looking back on it, I think Dr. Burkhart would have been better in the sack than either of them.
