More serendipity
No surprise that a Fowles quote surfaced this morning, he is after all one of my favorites.

You have been warned. This oneโs for hardcore cricket nuts. Red-ball nuts. Five-day nuts. The hardest of the hardcore. No coloured pajamas here.
I am definitely not a hardcore cricket nut - and still read the entire thing to the end. Fascinating.
