Ian Healey to Ranatunga:

"You don't get a runner for being a fat, unfit, c*nt"


Strauss yesterday:

"I felt that at the end of a long game, after a long innings, you're going to be tired. Cramping to a certain extent is a preparation thing. To a certain extent, it's a conditioning thing. I didn't feel that he merited having a runner at that stage."


That's the stuff, Andrew.

I read that as: 'I let that Sri Lankan fellow off the hook, I'm not bloody doing the same for the Safas'.

"A review of ?crown jewel? events which must be shown live on terrestrial television, led by David Davies, the former Football Association executive, is understood to recommend that the Ashes be made free to air.


Ministers will fully back the review?s recommendations on the Ashes."



This can only be good!

Without thinking about it, I immediately thought Warne and Lara. But as the article says, the last 10 years wasn't their finest hour.


In the interests of fairness, I voted for Glen McGrath cos I've had a pash on him for years. How's that for considered, intellectual process?

      New Empanada Place on LL

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain.

      Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      You know that the top 1% of earners pay 30% of all total tax in the UK right? If they leave who picks up the tax slack? This is an inconvenient truth ignored by many. This is why Labour did a u-turn on non-doms because they started leaving and left the Treasury with a growing tax hole to fill.
