There's something very evocative about a sports stadium on the eve of a big match.
Just popped into the Rose Bowl and it's looking superb, stands pristine, outfield immaculate in the evening sunshine and seven seagulls gathered near the square.
What glorious feats will unfold here tomorrow? A Maddy ton? A Daggett hat-trick? Will Kevin Pietersen go bananas and make Hampshire's supporters happy?
Or will Jonathan Trott dismiss KP for next to nothing just like he did in the final at Lord's two years ago?

Quite right Brian
Many's the time I've popped into Hampton Road on a Friday night just to look around the magnificent arena and anticipate the fare about to be served up for the good people of Warwick!

Mr Brian,
I have 2 things to say to you.
For sure you cannot say crycket is a sport. Let me tell you this. I drive the bus now for 2 years and for sure I am super happy in England. Butt, and what a butt, I canot understand why you the inglish like cricket so much when you have the glorious game of football and speedway up the road as you say.
Cricket is a sport for Russians, as we say in Poland, no?
My second point is this Mr Brian. May I sugest the super sport of speedway for the next time you pass birmingham. I drive past the cricket ground 2 times a week when i do my south birmingham tour on the bus. For sure I shall wait for you and discuss speedway, yes? Perhaps one day we go. No?

I'll join you on the bus some time, Bogdan. It'll be more interesting than the speedway.
