End of the County Championship so a chance to go see some friendly at the beautiful Arthington ground. On Saturday I spent the day watching sport on the television from Melbourne to America. Whilst at Arthington they were losing to Jesters. The scores being Arthington 119 for 6 in forty overs and Jesters scoring the winning runs in 14.1 overs.
After a misty start to Sunday morning ,I drove to watch King James. As I arrived the sun was out on the picturesque ground looked in great condition and the cows were fenced in the neighbouring field. The photgraphs follow of the match.
