A breakthrough!

Yesterday, I used my skills acquired from my last visit to catch the bus into Royal Tunbridge Wells. I did learn that standing alone along the side of a country road at a clearly marked bus stop is not enough reason for a bus to actually stop. Fortunately, they run every 30 minutes so I had time to rethink my approach and actually signaled the next one. The driver commented on the weak nature of my signal, but as he had in fact stopped, I considered it adequate. I also returned home on the bus for the first time. But the real highlight of my day way the fact that last night, with patient help from Duncan, I had a major breakthrough. I now understand the basics of cricket.
