Well, tonight, I've got my exam to be an accredited ECB ACO (England and Wales Cricket Board Association of Cricket Officials) Level 1 scorer. It involves lots of tedious paperwork, so I should be right at home with that.
I know that I have to try and avoid the sense of panic buying that seems to be gripping the nation after David Cameron suggested that we keep our tanks topped up. I do that, but only when the tank has run all but dry, so it's awkward tonight to try and do that, before heading off to Worcester for the exam itself.
Just over 3 weeks to go until I take a bow as the Sunday XI captain as well. I hope it goes well, or this could be a horrible year, as far as the cricket goes.
***UPDATE***
I have received confirmation that I passed the exam and am now a Level 1 scorer :D The pass mark was 80/100 - I got 80.25, but they all count.

And coop... What did vanstruck do to nearly get your Mod status Removed?
He thinks that he nearly got my mod status removed. I'd have no trouble banning him again under the same circumstances.

I don't remember why I used to watch it, I think I was brainwashed or something.
We were all young once. You can be forgiven.

c'mon don't lie to me, denial can be stressful.
To be honest, I don't really care for wrestlers. It's hardly a sport, being a poor class of actor.

I am pretending I know everything about cricket. So um congrades.
Most of the people playing the game actually know little about it, so you're not alone :P
Thanks for the congratulations.

Good luck! Though it's presumably all over by this point.
Hope it went well and you ticked all the right boxes (literally?).
Also, shouldn't it be EWCB ACO, or does poor Wales not get in on the acronym?
I know there were some mistakes there - the examiner told me about them after I finished (second quickest) and had retreated to the bar.
There's very little ticking of boxes involved in cricket scoring, but I won't go into detail.
The ECB has always been known like that, as opposed to the EWCB That's a 1997 attitude for you and Wales is technically part of England anyway, hence why there's no green or dragon on the Union Flag ;)
