Forget tennis

THIS IS THE GREATEST SPORTING SPECTACLE OF ALL TIME
"In Affectionate Remembrance of English Cricket which died at the Oval on 29th August 1882. Deeply lamented by a large circle of sorrowing friends and acquaintances. RIP. nb. - The body will be cremated and the ashes taken to Australia".
Now to business...
Australia won the toss
but its cloudy at Lords
......is there any aspect of human endeavour not encompassed by a game of cricket? Meteorology, mathematics, psychology, skill, agility, comradeship, soil mechanics, aerodynamics, civility, bravery
there's more to cricket than you might expect.
Ricky Ponting cut on the cheek
Oh dear
call a medic
get the drinks out
Is Ponting batting at number 2?
NO HES OUT CAUGHT b Harmeson !
Wellllllllllllll.....some interest! Tongues will be wagging, knives will be sharpened, brows furrowed...if Warne's can't keep-it-in-his pants behaviour caused headlines wait until they get hold of this.

Tis indeed. This should be interesting.
I always find in Australia that when addressing the issue of The Ashes (pause for a respectable moment) that this website

helps.
ANOTHER
66 - 4
or as you guys say 4 - 66

Do we? I hadn't noticed (not being facetious, I really didn't realise)
But thinking about it 4 for 66 or 66 for 4 is pretty bloody awful whichever way you look at it.
I wonder how the ASX is going?
Yes forgot about moral philosophy being part of cricket. So has Steve Harmison thank goodness.
"But thinking about it 4 for 66 or 66 for 4 is pretty bloody awful whichever way you look at it. "

As a wharfie at Port Adelaide might put it:
Too-bloody-shay!
"Too-bloody-shay"
love that. Will use it at first opportunity
forgot to ask whats ASX?
ASX - Australian Stock Exchange. Of course it's not trading at the moment (it has a computer-trading system during our overnight). But I bet the sentiment is a bit down tomorrow (our time) if we lose any more wickets!
time to buy then because Clarke is out lbw!
that's about the limit of my knowledge - "buy in gloom, sell in boom". Heck I should buy News Ltd those papers will be spilling out into the streets tomorrow, "misery loves company"
Do I get the multiple-cliche award?
Stumble It!
