EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic print titled "Lovely weather for ducks - and not the cricketing kind!", we are transported back to a rainy day at Acklam Park in May 1987. The four men captured here, Arnie Sidebottom and Phil Carrick from Yorkshire, Tim Robinson from Nottinghamshire, and Paul Jarvis from Yorkshire, sought shelter under a trusty umbrella as they took respite from the pouring rain. The image perfectly encapsulates the unpredictability of British weather during that era. Despite being drenched by the downpour, these cricketers wear smiles on their faces, showcasing their unwavering passion for the sport even in adverse conditions. Their camaraderie is evident as they huddle together beneath the umbrella, finding solace in each other's company. This snapshot serves as a reminder of simpler times when sportsmen embraced every challenge thrown their way with grace and determination. It transports us to an era where technology did not dictate our lives; instead, it was moments like these that formed lasting memories. As we admire this photograph from Memory Lane Prints' collection of 20th-century snapshots, let us appreciate how it captures both the spirit of cricket and Britain's notorious weather patterns. It reminds us that sometimes life throws unexpected curveballs our way but with resilience and unity, we can find joy even amidst stormy circumstances.
