Agger's dogs tail!


A dog friendly hotel was a must for commentator Jonathan Agnew.
Aggers and his wife Emma found digs for them and their pet pooch - cocker spaniel Tino (named after cricketer Tino Best) in Newcastle.
They also have other dogs - Bracken and Hoggard - again named after players!
He said: "The cocker came for the weekend and Emma took him up to Bamburgh and they had a lovely time. It is all part of the job - we go away a lot and it makes a big difference if Emma can come and spend a couple of days and do her own thing."
Test Match Special commentator Jonathan knows Durham well and has been visiting for years, although he never played cricket at Durham.
"It is incredible to see how the place has changed, developed, transformed, improved but one thing has always been the same – it is how friendly it is to come here and it is a lovely rural set up. A feature of coming up here is the people who have always been so pleased to see us," he said.
