Re: Pay on the day at Shrewsbury?
You can park down the far end away from the shops but it will cost you a fiver I think. You turn in as though you are going into the retail park but then go right on the roundabout just inside and continue down to the end. It is around a 15 to 20 minute walk to the ground.

Re: Eng-SA 1st test
Poor batting and poor bowling by one side countermanded by good batting and really good bowling by the other side ---only one winner and it will probably be today.
