England pile on the runs(I had written an entry entitled First day but I've managed to overwrite it!!)
South Africa had posted a really good total (338) which gave them a lead of 200 against England. Fortunately our openers Trescothic and Strauss were up to the job and they put on a record score for the first wicket.
We had met a bunch of four South Africans who sat behind us (and shared jugs of beer). In total only one wicket fell in the day and so it was a great day for the English.
Me and Andy agreed to join up with the South Africans that evening and they took us to a bar in the North of the city (and treated us to a pizza!)
We got home pretty late and tired - days filled with cricket, sun and beer at one pound a pint are taking their toll!!
