Also seen two Jamaican football personalities of note in Clyde Jureidini and Jeffrey Maxwell. And also have met some of the top referees inclduing a FIFA ref. Can't remember his name but he was supposed to be officiating at the 2006 WC but got injured before and Graham Poll used his cards which were made infamous in the three yellows incident.

Was giving Jimmy Adams throwdowns after some warmup game.. He drove one back at me and broke my index finger.. Used to live next door to Nixon McLean..
I've netted with Alec Stewart and Marc Butcher, well they were in the next net..
My parents went on tour to Barbados with Ian Botham, Viv Richards, Joel Garner and Michael Holding.. Nine months before I was born..
Managed to get on the national news, when they interviewed one of the Somerset guys about Marcus Trescothick's ailments.. I was taking photos in the background

I chat with Dan Vettori when he comes in to see my boss when he is back home. Have spoken with Makaya Ntini, Jaques Rudolph, Shaun Pollock, Rudolph got a mini signature bat signed by the whole test team for me. Met Lasith Malinga, Chaminda Vass, Marvan Attapatu, spoken with Nathan Bracken & Brad Hodge, re-faced Brendon McCullums bats, put grips on Sanath Jayasuriya's bats, he watched me put them on. Chatted with most of the NZ side. Bumped into Sitiveni Sivivatu in a dairy.
