This Sundays grudge match is against ITN (who apparently stack shelves at the weekend when not writing fiction) and is to be played (2pm start) at St.Georges School, Harpenden, Hertfordshire. (Directions to the ground they share with Harpenden Cricket Club can be found at: http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?pc=AL51DT although their home page is at http://www.users.waitrose.com/~ITNcricketclub for any anorak enquires).
To meet at the Ye Olde Fighting Cocks Inn off Verulamium Park, St.Albans from midday onwards. Skips band play their alternate Sunday afternoons and are arriving a bit early to serenade us over our roast / coaches salad. The international St. Albans festival coincides with our fixture so the town centre will be chocker and numerous roads closed Sunday pm. I would suggest therefore that all those meeting for Lunch avoid the town centre and park at the ground and not the pub and walk to the pub over the park - 5 min. The two places to park for the ground are either at the Leisure Centre off Holywell Hill or else opposite the museum, St.Michaels Street off Hemel Hempstead Road. If coming by train walk via the Leisure Centre across the park. All becomes clear at: http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?pc=AL34HE&cat=pub&title=Fighting+Cocks.
