I enjoy a good test series, but enough to watch the Ch5 highlights of an evening, not spend a whole day at a game. Even when it is the Ashes, which do have an extra zing to them. Are you more keen?

I need to get cuter at convoys, but never seem to have the units to spare. Pleased to hear they are not delivering for you! :-D

Turning off for the evening now ….
