That's silly - he was the only decent thing out there yesterday. Botham was commentating when he got out and his view was if you have a flamboyant player like KP, you take the rough with the smooth.


Much as I dislike KP for various reasons, I'd rather watch him play than someone like Boycott.

No, they don't. Ended up going to the White Horse - nice old fashioned feel, great barman and only ?2.60 a pint. He turned the sound up for us too.


I really don't like the referral system! I know Flintoff gained his wicket off the back of it but I still strongly feel that the umpire's word is law - some you win, some you lose. I don't want to watch perfectly technical cricket - human element is what makes it exciting/frustrating.

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.


On the plus side it is good to see the windies doing well because they are a team that really deserves success but has so many hassles with money and politics confounding their efforts.


But magnanimity towards the opposition aside.


All out for 51!

5 ducks!

To score of 24!

Beaten by an innings and 23 runs when you are one of the top 5 teams in the world.!


Oh dear.

The CPT and the EDT might carry it (when they aren't showing Ireland rugby and FA Cup). With the return to the rickety old Rec Ground in Antigua, limited camera angles, no video-refereeing and a fast track, it is a nostalgic return to Test cricket as it used to be.

    • Get on those waiting lists asap if you haven't already. I waited till after the birth and it was very challenging getting a place once our daughter turned 1.  She ended up at LEYF Camberwell (we had to accept 2 days to start and gradually got to ramp up 5 days). She absolutely loved it there after an initial shaky start but her key worker and team worked really hard to settle her in. They spent a lot of time giving her cuddles and making her feel safe. Great outdoor space and really caring, enthusiastic staff with low turnover. Would highly recommend. 
    • We are expecting a baby in a few months, and have heard about the epic waiting lists for nurseries in the area... We have been to look around, and are considering, LEYF Camberwell, N Family Club Camberwell and Purple Jay Herne Hill. Would love to hear any feedback from experienced parents!
    • Most of the shops in LL have too small a footprint. That's why we have so few chains. That won't change quickly. 
    • Errr could it be because of the noise pollution coming from it perhaps? You may not be able to hear it where you live but anyone on the Dulwich Village side of Lordship Lane all the way to beyond Brockwell Park is being disturbed by it - the sound wash from it is huge and that's a lot of people. As I said before we know people who live nearer to Brockwell Park to us and they say it is unbearable.   To be fair the Emirates moved to a piece of wasteland between railway tracks so it actually in a less densely populated area now and the council actually goes out of their way to try to mitigate the impact on local residents and yes, other than the concerts, you could hear a pin drop on matchdays! 😉
