Waddya mean a negative? That sounds like it could *be* the England side...

The Irish team is also made up of a handful of South Africans, Kiwis and Australinas with a brace of poms thrown in for good measure.


South Africa has also got in on the act. Chronically unable to grow their own spin bowlers they have stolen one from Pakistan.

Eek, good show from the dutch boy from port elizabeth.


So, almost 300 to chase. Who reckons KP trys to smack it around and is out for two?

Then we panic and play defensively for the next fifteen overs, then look like we might get back into it before a quick collapse?

And you missed a cracker - moving from easy confidence of an historic win while Strauss & Bell were batting to despair as we lost quick wickets during the Power Play (why do England always, always fall apart during a power play) to that most rare of results - a tie. Good stuff and infinitely better than my son's preference for the Carling Cup Final game.

    • I recently hired Andy to paint the newly plastered walls in my front room, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the start, he offered a fair and reasonable price for the work, and his professionalism really stood out. Andy has a wealth of experience and was happy to share suggestions about colour choices and paint types, which made the decision-making process much easier. He completed the work within the agreed timescale, and I am very happy with the finish.  What impressed me most is that Andy went above and beyond what I initially asked. He not only painted the room beautifully but also helped with extra tasks such as putting up the wall bracket, curtain poles, and curtains, and even gave me a hand moving furniture between rooms. That level of support is rare and very much appreciated. If you’re looking for a painter and decorator who is reliable, trustworthy, reasonably priced, experienced, and willing to go the extra mile to help, I would highly recommend Andy.
    • John recently skimmed the walls in our front room lounge, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the result. From start to finish, he was professional, punctual, and easy to work with.   He arrived on time each day and kept me updated on progress, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free. The quality of his plastering is smooth, even, and ready to paint with minimal prep. He takes real pride in his work.   John was also very tidy, laying down protective sheets and cleaning up thoroughly after the job was done. It’s clear he respects his clients’ homes, which I really appreciated.   On top of that, he’s friendly, approachable, and trustworthy someone you feel comfortable having in your home. His pricing was fair and transparent, with no unexpected costs.   Highly recommended if you're looking for a skilled and reliable plasterer. I’ll definitely be using him again for any future work.
