County Championship Division Two, The Oval: Close of Play, Day Two: Leicestershire 479, Surrey 160-6

Off to admit Wolfgang Moneypenny into the Long Room at The Oval. I fear an abuse of my @surreycricket membership. Oh Lordy.

@surreycricket saw off L**c for 479, only to lose cheap early wicket for 4. @FreeSouthLondon seems to be fine, drinking from bottle of white.

The ceremonial handing over of the the revolutionary cycling tights to Wolfgang Moneypenny has been made. Viva!

Topless action in the Member’s pavilion at The Oval. It ‘ain’t Wolfgang Moneypenny; it ‘ain’t @AnnaJCowen either.

Hoggard bowling to Mr Ramps at The Oval. Bless. Happy days. Slow going for @surreycricket. 43-1. Wolfgang loving the bat and ball game.

Tea at The Oval. Young Davies has his head down on 45. Ramps staying put and blocking on 10. Off to introduce Wolfgang to the Surrey Museum.

Had pleasant tea interval & pitch invasion of Oval wicket with Wolfgang Moneypenny. He plans to use cricket & break dancing to unite youth.

Back from showing Wolfgang Moneypenny around the Establishment of South London cricket. Cripes. 96-1 @sureycricket. Humid & skies bruising.

Wolfgang has admitted he can’t see the cricket ball wearing his revolutionary shades. He is using the dispersal of pigeons to follow action.

Davies walks for 69. Which all means… @surreycricket partnerhip of Ramps and Khan. Wolfgang fascinated by mercenary stance of Khan. 111-2.

Lordy. Mr Ramps back in the hutch with @surreycricket stuck on Nelson. Not looking good for the ‘rrey. 111-3.

Younis Khan back in pavilion. And possibly back to Pakistan now that his ban lifted. 125-4 @surreycricket. Wolfgang talking about his wives.

Fag end of The Oval afternoon and @surreycricket are burnt. 156-5. @FreeSouthLondon is disassociating himself from County of Surrey.

@surreycricket one more down, 157-6. Batty walks for a duck. Thanks, but no thanks. Follow on looking likely. Damn that Oval wicket.

Stumps. And thank f for that. @surreycricket shocking.
