An Ashes series is often a time when those who have previously seemed indifferent to cricket, perhaps on multiple occasions – or maybe even exhibited active dislike for it in some forms – suddenly become interested in it.
And if there is some ridiculousness on offer, well, that can broaden the appeal (in the sense of ‘increase the range of those interested’ rather than in the sense of ‘make an appeal in the style of Stuart Broad’).
With that in mind, I thought I’d check in on my parents’ cat, Dusty, to see if he’d found any good bedtime reading recently.
The perfect Christmas gift for YOUR cat
Apparently.
