Happy Advent to you and your kin! And everyone else's kin too, come to that. As every December so far this decade, I'm going to do an Advent Calendar of beautiful and brilliant carols, with each day's added to a YouTube playlist and also to the ongoing Spotify one, now in its sixth(!) year.

The first tour I followed properly was the 74/75 Lillee/Thompson one when they sent Cowdrey out. Yet I still start thinking it’ll be different…

At least we know it’s over now. We can get on with things with the occasional check on whether it’s going to be 5-0 or 4-1, but it’s over.
