I didn't sleep at all last night due to Sara's heavy snoring which resembled Crewe Junction in the days of steam or of a cappuccino machine about to explode. Instead, I went downstairs and watched a full length feature film - Behind Enemy Lines II - a military thriller about four Navy Seals dropped into North Korea on an aborted mission to destroy nuclear missiles. This morning, after about an hour's dozing I did some work in the study before picking up Richard and driving over to the Ageas Bowl for the third day of the County Championship match between Hampshire and Essex. Essex were batting in their second innings and put on 475 all out leaving Hampshire a total of 427 needed to win - a mammoth task. At the close of play, Hampshire had put on 73 for 3 thereby trailing by 354 runs with only seven wickets left. If they fail to win then Hampshire's promotion hope will die. This evening Sophie called round and we went through Sunday's service together - choosing hymns and music to accompany the message of my sermon.
