A day at Lord's watching the cricket

Last night after watching the cricket highlights I decided I'd give it a go and queue for tickets for the cricket today. Got up stupidly early for a saturday (about 7:15), got myself ready and over to Lords. There were only 12 people in the queue at 8:15, and within about 5 minutes someone with spares came along and sold them to me for £5 less than face value. They were also extremely good seats - in the grand stand on the 9th row. Perfect view.

Took a few long-distance photos...below:
