I meant the British attitude to the rules and to anyone who breaks one.
Not necessarily true. Whilst there has been some sniping on this thread, there has also been some discussion and it is this sort of discussion that can lead to a consensus of opinion i.e. he should have phoned first - even Royston admitted that!
However, some, myself included, have received a clarification of Rule 5. I do not take it as criticism but part of a learning process. Comments are raised, others correct them and all is well. It's not a matter of pontificating but raising a query - a "what about this?"
If you want to talk about the British Character, then it's the "British Character" which means we could all sit in a pub and have a laugh and shake hands about it afterwards. Anything else just wouldn't be cricket what ho?
Cheers
