A miserable series ends.

A brief interlude to pick through the corpse of the tour, then on the bright-side things can pretty much only improve.


Morgan has yet to convince at this level and will be lucky to retain his place, Bell had rum old time too. As for KP.....


But there have been hiccups in the past few years when overall it's still a golden age I guess.

I think Bopara is a better option atm and before anyone shoots the idea to pieces it's worth remembering that he had a good summer last year with bat AND ball (top run getter in ODIs v India and bowling figures of 4 for 10 in a T20 v W.I.) and deserves another run in the test side.

I know it's not everyone's cup of Darjeeling but the IPL starts again tomorrow and - after having to follow England's stuttering progress on the radio - there are 72 live matches on ITV4!


First up Chennai Super Kings (Muralitharan, Bravo, Morkel...) v Mumbai Indians (Tendulkar, Symonds, Singh...)


Bring on the big hitting madness and let's hope we see the return of the Mongoose.

Got no work done this afternoon watching KP's fantastic knock of 103 off 64 balls including nine 6s to bring Delhi Daredevils back from the brink (ending on 162 for 5 after they were 27 for 3) to win against the Deccan Chargers - and he won it with a 6 straight down the ground. Really wonderful batting.

    • Dont forget the impact of the last banking crisis, covid, furlough and the energy price impact on the economy or aren't those factors that caused a financial black hole in your view of the world? 
    • Oh dear! The general response is that my experience of Jon Hartley is the norm. That’s bad. As an update to my issue with him, Ellie Reeves’ office advised that I contact the Southwark Labour Party Chief Whip in the first instance with my complaint. Coincidentally, the Chief Whip turns out to be Cllr Maggie Browning. She acknowledged my complaint and, in response, said that she had ‘spoken’ to Jon Hartley and appeared satisfied that he’d now responded to me. Not sure that’ s an adequate response, since it seems to been well-known that he consistently ignores constituents. Maggie will know that better than anyone as she’s paired with Jon in our Ward, and she’s having to pick up the stuff which he’s ignoring. As people have noted, Maggie does indeed respond to constituents but she’s now on maternity leave. Alas, I think that means we’re lumbered with just Jon. I’ve bypassed him in respect of my own issue, because I think he’s a waste of my time. In case anyone else should be having problems with him, especially now that Maggie Browning is away, I’d recommend emailing Ellie Reeves MP. Her office is very responsive in my experience and, if she hears from enough disgruntled constituents of Cllr Hartley, I imagine she be quietly speaking to the Southwark Constituency Labour Party about him. Ultimately, if he stands again, he won’t be getting my vote. Be annoyed people, be very annoyed ! Your vote should count for something and the candidates privileged enough to get it should do the job they were elected for!
    • Looking for packing boxes, please msg me if you can help!
    • My 7yo old daughter was really nervous about going to the podiatrist for verruca treatment. We went to Dulwich Podiatry and saw Zack, who was absolutely brilliant at making her feel calm and informing her of the process every step of the way. Just wanted to put a recommendation in for anyone who’s looking for somewhere to take a child who’s wary about any treatments.
