Glove, sock, cardigan, antimacassar.

Warwickshire 193 for 4 (54 overs). Loudon 0, Ambrose 0.

Troughton departs, a little unluckily, gloving Nicholson down the leg-side to the wicket-keeper. That ends a partnership of 149 in 42 overs with Powell. Troughton's share was 76 from 128 balls with 12 fours and a six, not one of his most stylish innings, but a pugnacious and highly valuable one.
Without another run added, Powell, lifts a pull to mid-on and, to the huge disappointment of the crowd, falls for 82 from 155 balls with 15 fours.

Simon Ward:

I see Loudon is back in the hutch now!

L. Llewellyn-Bowen:

How many antimacassar's do you possess Mr Halford?

brian:

Sadly none. Only posh people possess antimacassars.
Me - I come from a poor family. One year things were so tight that at Christmas mum and dad gave me an empty box and told me it was an acion man deserter.

N.Picker:

Mr Llewellyn-Bowen - your apostrophe is in the wrong place.

Jane Hyatt:

You have used that one before Brian.

L. Llewellyn-Bowen:

So are Mr Halford's action man deserter jokes.........
