We're here with the Queen today and despite losing Straus to the second ball England currently have the edge. Good day for bowling - slightly overcast, bit humid, bowles getting some swing and Aussie batsmen don't look at all comfortable.


Great atmosphere and better now I've located the Guinness Bar.

Here is some more encouraging information. Every time England have made more than 500 in the first innings at Lords this century they have drawn the match.


Every time they have made between 390 and 490 in the first innings they have won.


So statistically they have a 100% chance of winning this game but they would have been a bit screwed if your man Collingwood hadn?t have thrown away his wicket.


Edit: Because upon reflection I can't spell.

Something rather samey about Anderson, Broad and Onions. And whenever Broad comes on to bowl, the scoring rate seems to pick up. It's about time he came to the party, as they say - a couple of wickets to lame pull shots isn't enough for me. The really bold move for Edgbaston would be Anderson, Harmison, and the unfairly sidelined Sidebottom. With Anderson batting at 9.

    • Crofton Park (borough of Lewisham) has a community notice board which as well as listing councillors is full of notices about local community activities of all sorts and for all ages. It is clean and tidy and only has one small fly poster (attached with one very small piece of tape, and easily removed - I didn't though). Crofton Park also has a lovely little community garden alongside the station, full of flowers, with lots of things of interest to kids,  and also obviously lovingly maintained. I don't know who the land belongs to - possibly the station, though access is via the adjoining road. If Lewisham council/Crofton Park residents can maintain a community notice board, why can't Southwark Council/East Dulwich residents?
