Great bats, but that kind of coverage could be sold for quite a bit. i didnt see much of his shots except his rash swip across the line to be bowled. I guess when you are that high profile the media only covers the bad bits.

I am working in Hampshire...only 25 minutes from the Chase workshop. And DC did come into my work (with the Eastleigh candidate) and do a talk and Q&A session last Thursday, so I would imagine that he popped back via the Chase workshop as it was on the way back up the M3? I'll ask Dan next time I see him! 8)

Post by: petehosk on February 21, 2013, 12:16:32 PM: Ok - just a coincidence that the PM was driving close to Chase!
That's just me over thinking it! Putting 2 and 2 together and coming up with total BS! DOH! :(
