<p>I suspect you of playing "tease the foreigner" Stuart! I had a
memory that when in Hollywood, Sir Cedric Hardwicke expected all
expatriot Brits to turn up for net practice for the local cricket
team, but could not find this on line. But I did find this, from
around the time of <i>The Waves</i>:</p>
<p>"The headmaster of High Wycombe Royal Grammar School, Mr.
E.R.Tucker, in an effort to stimulate the interest of parents in
school affairs, has arranged cricket practice at the nets for
fathers once a week."<br>
