This came up on my sports feed today, it being a year since Phillip Hughes's untimely death. Please scroll down and watch the memorial oration from Michael Clarke (possibly the best such tribute I've ever seen).

The words he says about digging in and getting through seem particularly appropriate given the events of the last few weeks on all sorts of fronts. We must dig in and get through, to tea and beyond to stumps. We must play on.

(The only significance of the picture is that I found it wistful, to suit my mood.)

I read your title first and I was wondering where I'd heard that quote before. I saw that speech when it was televised live but I can't quite bring myself to watch it again (but I agree it was a brilliant tribute).

Nice pic!

I thought I couldn't watch it again, but it was worth it. *sigh*

The picture is the moon over Jersey. Such a clear sky - the stars look enormous, like something out of a Van Gogh painting.
