“Bowling from the cemetery end”.

Local rules? Over the wall, 6 and out?

No longer a ground there sadly as Portchester 3's folded a few years ago.

Been there!

Have you got a photo of Dunstable cricket club in your collection? If not I'll try to get you one next summer. I sit there watching my son do All Stars and think it's a slice of heaven (not something people usually say aren't Dunstable!)

Let me check

Blimey, visited the castle a few weeks back and loved the location. Didn't realise there was a cricket ground inside. Dropped a sitter.

You did Louth the other day.
My dad was posted there in the 60s, as a young trainee agricultural supplies rep.
He was in a horrible B&B and hated it.
After a week he packed the job in and hitch hiked home in thick snow.
The only time I'd heard of Louth before.

Wow! He must really have hated it!

He did. I think he was also missing my mam and my then baby sister.
Took days before the company realised he wasn't there.
