BlueSky ought to have put a big picture of a cricket ball up whilst technology stopped play.

Part 1 of 4 A Peanuts Comic. Once again Lucy has goaded Charlie Brown into trying to kick a football, and (as usual) she jerks the ball away at the last second, sending Charlie flying into the air. This time however Charlie lands heavily on his neck and is killed instantly.

Part 2 of 4 Lucy kicks Charlie Brown to check if he’s dead. Which he is. Exasperated, and worried she’ll be blamed for his death, Lucy begins to drag Charlie’s now lifeless body towards the creek.

Part 3 of 4 Lucy dumps poor ol’ Charlie Brown into the creek and watches him float away.

Part 4 of 4 Lucy heads back to Charlie Brown’s backyard to pick a fight with Snoopy in order to establish an alibi. Unfortunately a disheveled, crumpled man with a cigar is already there. “Miss, have y’seen this dog? He’s best friends with a BIRD. Can you believe that?” That’s right folks. Columbo is here to avenge Charlie Brown.

Lucy van Pelt has finally gone too far. But she will be brought to justice

We appreciate you taking one for the team.

Magic.

It was interesting to see the bit about her being at the top and the only way being down because she was and remains the best keeper I have ever seen...in the "absolutely nailed on to catch everything on offer (and some that weren't too) way."

‘It is a stupid game but that’s what makes it lovable’: Sarah Taylor on cricket, coping with anxiety and coaching with Andrew Flintoff Taylor played 226 times for England before retiring early due to anxiety, but she has made her way back to the top

Something in my eye.
