First 4 of the day - hit the boundary as I was putting up the flag!!

2 litre pitcher of Castle - ?5.

Shocking prices!

4 bottles of Castle last night in one of the main bars was 48 Rand.

 

Back at the hotel now - doesn't look like any more play likely - was raining as we left!!

Rorke's Drift at 6am tomorrow - then fly to PE day after if our flight isn't one of many that has been cancelled.

Going very well today

Vaughny is whingeing on Radio 5 that the Barmy Army is way too quiet. Met them in the hotel bar yesterday, when they should have been watching the test!

great day today by all accounts! wouldn't know was up in the Zulu battlefields!

Fly to PE tomorrow!
