I would normally say enjoy but I’d be lying on this occasion. How much were they by the way ? Last ashes I think my ticket was £90 ( just under 190 Aussie dollars) I got a partial refund due to the rain delays.

I bought E Reserve which were the 2nd cheapest available, $63 each including booking fee.

It's Row 2, Level 4 of the Shane Warne stand. Somewhere around extra cover to mid off. Could have had level 1 at Square leg for the same price.
