Just lost ten quid to James Whitaker on the snooker table - fouled on black. Absolutely gutted. Cost Whitaker a serious round of ale though!

Shocking day yesterday! Took five and a half hours to get back to #Leicester AND we almost missed the ferry! Team Agnew- last car on!!

Turns out a couple of the new boys let off a fire extinguisher at the Farringford- they owe David Gower 27 Greenbacks asap #foamgate

Hours and hours on indoor nets today- my first ball hit the side netting. Definitely not in the Sir Geoffrey Boycott Corridor of Uncertainty!

Heater on full blast in the car for the trip to Leicestershire CCC 🦊 - it's absolutely Baltic!

Only ten days until the MCC v Notts. Getting worried- have rarely bowled well at Lord's Cricket Ground #MCCvNotts

I am one of the five Wisden Almanack Cricketers of the Year alongside Neil Foster, Peter Roebuck, David Hughes & Salim Malik #winners #1988

Some Leicestershire CCC 🦊 players are keen on getting a 'This is Anfield' type of sign at Grace Road. I say 'no' but @cricketdaffy says 'yes' #fortress

Tonight is the 1988 Wisden Almanack awards at the East India Club in St. James' Square. Can't wait! #bignight #cricketerofyear

Great night at the Wisden Almanack awards. Sat next to Sir Gubby Allen- got him to sign my complimentary copy of Wisden! #legend

Nets are becoming a pain in the rear. Batsmen playing outrageous shots and bowlers larking around. Refused to bowl to Peter Such. #bored

First day out in the middle yesterday. Best bowler by miles was young lad by the name of Chris Lewis-reckon he'll go a long way in the game.

Great competition out in the middle between young Lewis and @cricketdaffy and it was definitely Lewis that won today's battle. #foxes

Playing cricket is what I do best,yet a couple of months ago I felt like a journalist.It's all so complicated.What will this season bring...

...another 100 wickets? An England and Wales Cricket Board recall? Will it be my last year of pro cricket? But tomorrow it's Lord's Cricket Ground for the MCC v Notts

Fred Titmus totally ignored me as usual yesterday as he has been since 1978. #selector

New digital scoreboard was unveiled at Lord's Cricket Ground yesterday but with a whole line of arabic graphics. Apparently it had got wet! #rain

Disappointing day today. Got a wkt- Tim Robinson- but we got ripped apart by their seamers. Franklyn Stephenson bowled bloody fast.

However,my mate Graemefowler started 1988 with a duck.His thigh pad is still in Jamaica apparently so he borrowed Chris Broad's #riotshield

Just off out to dinner with Robin Askwith. Yes, that Robin Askwith! #Confessions
