Battle for the Ashes 2013

[David Morton]

I guess I could say something trite or even derisory. So I will.


There. Take that.

Hardly emphatic, and close but still a thriller... well done everyone - beats baseball into a cocked hat

Good day for GB (someone hasn't been reading the script properly)

Chris Froome extends YJ lead in TdF by winning Stage 15..

Cal Crutchlow a fighting 2nd at Sachsenring. Don't forget he is not on a factory ride, and beat The Doctor on a works Yamaha.

The boy just gets better and better...

Adam Gilchrist's famous walking incident - YouTube

At least we have honour.

Easy to remember Gilly (he is a top bloke & top player btw), rather harder to remember any other aussie doing that.

As Mike Atherton said to the aussie fielders a few years back, 'when in Rome'............

Regards Steve

Sorry, forgot Alistair Brownlee and Jodie Stimpson's crushing wins in World Triathlon up Kitzbuehel Horn 11th July.

Don't worry, it looks as if England will certainly "snatch defeat out of the jaws of Victory" in Brazil, and the Force will balance once again..

 

[Pete McCluskey.]

Well done chaps an excellent win! Jolly good show!

 

[David Morton]

Any takers for the second test?
Say multiples of 6 bottles to make it worthwile?

Dont you just love it.........

 

[Pete McCluskey.]

Errr. No thank you David.

 

[Paul Brameld]

Errr. No thank you David.

Very wise man Pete

 

[David Morton]

Day one of the second Test at the Home of Cricket.
Another champagne weekend approaching.

 

[Pete McCluskey.]

Indeed! What brand of champers do you prefer David?

 

[Keith]

At least a Krug I reckon Pete, you know these pilots, hey.

Tell you what David, I'll lay a single one of these (plays pensioner card)




That the series WON'T be a whitewash?

C'mon Pete, you get on this too. You will be able to collect REAL soon

 

[Pete McCluskey.]

48 for three and I'm off to bed. Big day tomorrow my colt is running at Ipswich.

Although I became partial to Krug whilst in Big Airways, the Black Widow is a fine everyday gargle.
We actually know the current Black Widow who still lives in Bologna and her daughter is a close friend of one of my girls.

 

[Pete McCluskey.]

361 to chase after the first innings. Piece of piss really give us a challenge boys.

Haven't you got a horse to groom? :

 

[Pete McCluskey.]

He ran fourth beaten by two lengths. Right now I'd rather talk horses than cricket!

 

[Keith]

Not shabby Pete, not shabby..

My eldest daughter is taking the seat at Lords tomorrow. Will it be a momentous day or will this humiliation go on until Sunday? I expect to collect her at the Lisson Grove entrance about 19:00 totally sloshed if the Indian test last year is anything to go by. Silverstone, Henley, Wimbledon, Lords. What is there not to like about living here. Oh Yes - I know. Its the endless queues for security checks. I wonder why that has come about ? Answers on a post card.

 

[Keith]

Because people like you keep smuggling in their own Krug! :veryangry:

 

[David Morton]

Ironically at Lords they don't seem to care about that though Trent Bridge confiscate it. We took three bottles in a dry ice bag +real glasses into Lords and they said nothing. After all this is not soccer you know. This is real.
