Yeah, it was very cold at home.
It's nice to get back out to a hot country, but yeah, it was nice to get home, spend a bit of time with family and some friends.
I'm not going to go into any details but obviously I made a terrible mistake and not only as a player but as a captain it's very unprofessional.
I should be leading from the front and showing the players how it should be as a professional cricketer and a captain and I put myself in a bad situation which I shouldn't have done.
I've learnt from my mistakes.
I've reflected a lot on what's happened and I know it wasn't the right thing to do and I want to say sorry to my teammates, to all the fans that travel far and wide to watch us spend a lot of money on coming out to watch us play cricket and supporting us and to the ECB for putting them in a tricky situation and it'll never happen again and like I said I'm extremely sorry.
No, it definitely doesn't.
We just went out for some food and we just said, let's go for a drink.
There was no intention of going out, no intention of putting ourselves in a tricky situation.
It just managed to happen.
Obviously, if I had my time again, I definitely wouldn't do it again.
If I hadn't have told them and I didn't get them punishments, then the punishments would be even worse and more severe.
So I'm glad that I told them.
I trusted the ECB in telling them that I made a mistake.
Thankfully I'm still playing cricket for England and that's a childhood dream.
Like I said, the punishments could have been a lot more severe so I'm glad that I told them and we dealt with it.
Did you tell them straight away before the game?
No, I told them mid-game.
I felt like I needed to reflect on it and try and come up with a plan to negate what had happened really.
