See you shortly. Don't forget the dress code, which they only told us about yesterday!

 

[Domaintial]

Oh, the dress code email was hilarious...

Please be aware that there is a dress code and the following are prohibited - jeans and their close relations, leggings; jodhpur-style trousers; t-shirts; tracksuits; training shoes; plimsolls; flipflop shoes; denim clothing; and overalls.

EH!? I'm assuming this is a thing that has actually happened at Lord's before, for them to learn from? Observation-ally, those codes don't match exactly with any of those listed on the Lords website, but anyway. Different areas of the club have different dress codes though
