Parquet Parquet's Grand Day Out





 Walking along the Victoria Embankment in Nottingham, with the stunning River Trent sparkling in the sunshine, having crossed over the suspension bridge built in 1906, passing an impressive gate and war memorial.

 Arriving at Trent Bridge Cricket Ground for the England versus South Africa One Day International. Perfect day, perfect pitch.

View through the buildings to the Notts Forest Stadium with legendary Brian Clough's name engraved on the stand for all fans to see, even from the cricket ground.
.
Day turns into night, a full house willing England to do better - but after a thrilling start to England's bowling and the fall of 3 wickets, the diehard support was to no avail. 
Oh well, it was still a grand day out!
