The weekend with cricket and more cricket

Hi,

 Friday was a bit sad for me - saying goodbye to my friend Jo.  She's been at work for almost as long as me.  I might have had a wee cry as I left the morning tea.  Stayed strong while I was in there though.

It was also Sam's last day - he's off on his OE.  Got a few hugs with him at the leaving do.  Mike turned up too after his other leaving do.

Khemry and I get a hug with Sam

Bye Sam!

Iced latte with Mike

I had to rush off at 7.15pm to meet Toby and Tessa at the Sky Stadium for the T20 match against India.  What a great night!

Crowds gathering at the start of the T20 match

India smashed us!

It went to a Super Over.  Which NZ had no show of winning.  India had batted first and didn't get a huge score so NZ was int he driving seat with plenty of overs and wickets.  And managed to only equal India's score.  For the second match in a row. 

And promptly went and lost the Super Over.  NZ batted first in the over and got 13.  India came out and smashed a 6 off the first delivery. 

Sigh.

It did go until 12.30am!  So we had a super late night.  Walked back to Kaustubh's car so Tessa could catch a ride home with them.  Thank you Kaustubh.

Late morning, but had to pack for Toby's camping, pick up his mates and drop them at Catchpool.  They had a great time there.  Him, Tessa, Isaac and Zack.

Back via the supermarket to find a super tidy house - ta Mike.  Had people arrive for a BBQ.  Then an awesome game of backyard cricket in Izard Park.

Saturday back yard cricket

That tuckered out Mike!  Hahahah.

Mike and Moxley take a nap

Sunday saw us having brunch with Andrew.  Sally is busy at work with coronavirus stuff. 

Chocolate days

Took Moxley for a wander
Short week this week.  Thursday is Waitangi Day and I have Friday off.  Yay for short weeks.  Mike and Toby are off to Wanaka for a road trip!

Have the best week!

Love,
Angela
