Read More →Still another great song from America , sung & played by a group called the “Texas Tornados”& available for your listening pleasure, my dear readers ,on the ever popular “You-Tube”. Did I tell you folks, that even at “four-score & one”, I am still very much a “romantic @ heart”, love hearing a good love–song & still “write” them myself, whenever I get the chance, simply because , as I have said and written, many a time, life, as we know it, is but a “blink of an eye” in the context of time. With everything that is “going-on” at the moment, with the love of MONEY being the primary focus of almost everyone around, with the “petty jealousy” that reigns supreme, especially between “Entertainers” of today, & sadly, even including some Lankan Aussies who have been in the business for about ten minutes.

Isn’t it strange?, a simple 3-letter English word, now used in connection with people born homosexual and who prefer the company & love of their same sex (not that there is anything wrong with that), as Jerry Seinfeld reiterated in some hilarious episode, some time ago,in conjunction with George Costanza, Kramer & some American-baseball “Star”, whose name eludes me.

Now, “straight”, there’s another simple English word meaning to move in a straight line, without a curve or bend in it, I watch Seinfeld primarily to see “Elaine” the female “lead” because I think she ...

Here it is in full: First of all, with the honorary life membership; I think someone has read my mind. About three days ago I thinking about whether I should ask for the chance to be a fee paying member at Surrey. When I received honorary life membership at the MCC I thought nothing could top that because that was something that was on my list but this, from Surrey, has actually topped that so thank you very much. It’s been kind of a unique journey for me, coming from international cricket to Surrey and I remember when Graham Ford asked me to come here. I was discussing ...
