Advantages: An iPhone cricket game... Disadvantages: ...very basic
You may have noticed I've written the odd review or two about iPhone application games in recent weeks...and you'd be right. So here's another one - Flick Cricket.
There's a game doing the rounds on the internet called Stick Cricket which is extremely addictive and enjoyable...unfortunately the Flick version is completely different, and not quite up to the same standard; but then again this application is free for all you good, good iPhone users.
The game is based on a six-over match, where the user always bats first and then attempts to defend the total as the 'computer' chases it down. On the main menu there are a couple of options - Quick Facebook Game, New Normal Game, Continue Game and Connect with Facebook. Now, I've not delved into the world of the Facebook options, but I believe it allows you to upload photos for players ...
Advantages: Animals in a Beautiful Setting Disadvantages: Tranquillity Lost at Peak Times
The BBC sit-com To The Manor Born, starring Penelope Keith and Peter Bowles, was filmed at Cricket St Thomas. The lovely valley setting of the grounds is where you will find the Wildlife Park. Just south of the A30 between Chard and Crewkerne, in Somerset. It is well sign posted from the main road.

It passed to two other families before becoming a hotel in 1999 and is now owned by Warners. I will tell you a little more about that later. A free brochure is available in the wildlife gift shop, along with many other leaflets of interest to visitors to the area.
There are three pricing periods for the park, Peak, Off-Peak and Winter. This reflects the fact that like other great attractions, it can become a victim ...
Advantages: The birth of cricket on the PC! Disadvantages: Well...it's getting on a bit!!!
Forget Brian Lara Cricket. Don't even think about the new Cricket 2005 from EA Sports. This is where it all began! EA Sports original production - Cricket 97.
With the slight boredom of a jobless summer hanging over me, I opted to whip out this quite literally, old-school game, and then it struck me...what if I can actually review it?!?
And low and behold, I could! So, here's my best attempt...and please bare in mind how, in just nine years, the world of computer gaming has drastically changed.
Put it this way...it begin with, the case holding the disc features a picture of Ian Botham playing a cut shot, in early-nineties one-day clothing... oh yes, we're getting retro here
So once you've installed it onto your computer?oh and trust me, nowadays, there's no way your computer won't be compatible for it!! Through the advice ...
