It seems that every year the Palace offer MCC a few invitations to be extended to staff for their services to cricket. And this year I'm on that list. Not sure if photos are allowed, but there will be cake!

New 4x4 returned home after warranty work on the transmission, just as the snow disappears. Just made me laugh at the irony of the situation.

Went to a drinks reception once at the House of Lords and there was a very strict no photos rule as it is officially a Royal Palace. Didn't stop us of course... There may be more guards about if you're going to Buck Palace so it's up to you

Sounds like a good excuse to get out on the bike as soon as the weather permits then Bill, to get a few photos!
