This is one of those that when I first heard it I thought, "good grief, no ", ejected the CD and moved on. However, times change. People have moods I rather like it now and I've played it a couple of times recently. Quirky lyrics - presumably Mr Bown with his cricketing analogies - and a jolly little melody. Another period (actually, the second year running) where the B-sides to the singles were better than most of the tracks on the album. Yeah, it's alright this; 7/10

Where I don't like most things from this period of time I always somehow had a weakness for this song and always liked it.

Offensively bland, a band truly lost
Its cricketing cleverness went over my head!

Offensively bland, a band truly lost Its cricketing cleverness went over my head! "Its cricketing cleverness went over my head!" You need to field a bit deeper.

I like the idea of them recording when an Ice cream van goes past.

The only B-Side from the PR album that I like is Rotten to the Bone, the other two...Not.

One of my least liked from that era. Bland, dull stuff.

Howzat is that your'e on a sticky wicket if you think I can keep this up for much longer I might "run out" of things to say and the thread will be "over" without any "extras".
