What a finish, thought Blowers was going to have a Sean. Stupid ICC rule should now be scrapped - at least it'll put an end to the Aussie moaning about England time wasting and being saved by the light!


A better end for England after Clarkes bravado in declaring (which he did as their only chance of winning the game rather than any Corinthian spirit) and their taunting of England as over-cautious - the Aussies got the fright of their lives and now finish the series with relief rather than a swagger. Pietersen in terrific form again.

Sadly still relevant. You'd probably find them a bunch of hideous lefties but I believe these people do good work raising awareness and lobbying.

I had to smile this morning when I heard of the collapse. So many broadcasters yesterday were saying what a great 1st day England had. It wasn't. It was ok. The Aussies overcame their collapse to post a reasonable score yet it sounded like England had already won the test.

The game starts off well but just when you think you're getting the hang of it, it crashes. A soft(as shite)ware problem apparently.

      That was very kind of you to take the cat to the vet. Did the car not stop?

      Sad news about a cat, SE4

      By HTED · Posted

      This is a bit outside our area, but I'm posting in case .... Last night (Sat.20 Dec), around 10.30, we saw a cat hit by a car in St Norbert Road, SE4.  We took him to the out of hours vet in Beckenham, where they confirmed that he had died.  They will see if he is microchipped, and contact the owner if so.  They were very kind.   He was a lovely cat, grey and white.  He must have died very quickly.  So sorry to be the bearer of bad news 😞 The vet is Medivet in Beckenham, tel: 0208 650 2003.

      Bitey Fox.

      Watching my cats over the years with foxes, I've found that foxes have totally ignored them. One exception was when a young fox hadn't seen my cat and found himself eye to eye with my cat at a distance of 1 metre. There was a stand off but the fox blinked first and my cat chased him out of the garden. So proud of her. I believe when foxes have attacked cats, the cat has been vulnerable  - old, young, ill wounded.

      It's also possible that someone is hand feeding foxes and encouraging them by this to approach others. I have heard of foxes attacking young children (if only anecdotally) but not adults. They do seem to attack cats.
