In 1939 there was a 'timeless' test match, between South Africa and England which was meant to have been played to a finish. After eleven days the match was abandoned without a result because the tourists had to catch the 8.50 train to Durban for a 2 day train journey to catch the boat home.

Yorick - I expect you'll drop by this thread at some time. Can I recommend the BGII board thread 'I just happened to cross'. Your favourite number is at it again, he is rewriting the history of Britain!!
