We did play them again about four weeks later on 28th April in a benefit match. Was that it?

You're right too - for some reason I was focusing on Southern League results...
What is the earliest cricket Test match from which all 22 players involved are still alive?
(I hope I'm not tempting fate for any of them...)

No - sadly the two West Indies openers from that Test, Steve Camacho and Joey Carew, are both now dead.
You've got one of the countries correct, and are just a few years too early.
That's the one. My first Test match too - and what an initiation. Australia won by an innings and 'something over 100 runs' after Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat. Ian Chappell hit 196 and Rod Marsh 118 before Ashley Mallett cleaned up the Pakistanis taking 8-59.
Over to you...
OK! The source for this is my Dad, who was there. He's suggested this question for here.
Against whom did Watford play their first match under floodlights?
Against whom did Watford play their first match under floodlights?
The first League match under lights was in 1956/57 season against Torquay - but I have read somewhere that they played a series of friendly matches against European teams which were under lights a couple of seasons earlier. Was it Hadjuk Split?
There was a match against a Brazilian team not long after that - Portuguesa des Desportos?
Or was it not against 'foreign' opposition?
Bravo. Dad remembered it as "São Paulo", but that sounds like you're right.
Back to you.
(and the board breathes a sigh of relief 
)

And the board groans you surely mean...
Apart from being creatures in Game of Thrones, who are Viserion and Drogon?
2 newly discovered species of ants ? Pheidole Viserion and Drogan Viserion. If not that then I know of a race horse called Viserion.
Cheers BB. A footy one, which football league club has played at the largest number of different home venues in its history ?
Are you looking for during the club's League history or overall history?
I thought it may be QPR - they have used 15 grounds since they were founded, but only two as a League club.
Surprisingly, their first ground was Watford Fields...
