the contributors

Sorry to harp on about my book, I’m not, but there was one thing I wanted to mention.

I was not the only author of it.

Yes I wrote most of it (75% original, 22% taken from online stuff I’d done) but the other 3% came from 4 contributors.

One was my wife Miriam. Those who have been reading here for a while will remember her work.

Then I had test cricket’s greatest blogger, Iain O’Brien, who wrote about a part of the Ashes series that meant something to him.

Also was Rob Smyth of the Guardian, who is the world’s expert on the last day at Adelaide in 06/07, so I got him to sum that up.

And last, but by no means least, was The Old Batsman, who delved into the English media and gave me some words on their Ashes involvement.

All these people added a touch of respectability to my crude ramblings.

Thank you all very much.

    Can we expect cats seeing as Miriam’s contributed?

    Dave, it is largely catless.

    Dave, I think it might actually be entirely catless. I only did two really tiny bits. Next time if I proof read one of his books I’ll try to sneak in “CATS! CATS! FLUFFY CATS ARE GREAT!” into the middle of a block of text.

    Gonzo, it is listed on the US Amazon, but the name of it is wrong.
