Thoughts
With Day 3 delayed by rain, I can still talk about this!
So, Sri Lanka are being mauled again, all out for 141, though Chaminda and Malinga put up a brave fight in the tail for a 50 partnership. Then KP runs away with the England innings, getting them to 295 for 5 (Collingwood falling as Pieterson gets his century, and then finally KP gone!) Then, out of nowhere, England fall over, 5 wickets in 5 runs and I am very happy again!
Unfortunately, Sri Lanka are now 86-4 and...here we are again. They can't just rely on Murali and Malinga in their bowling, and Sangy and Jayawardene keep falling over for not very much at all! What happened to my beautiful team?!
And now for X-Men...look away if you haven't seen...

So, went to see X3 last night. Brilliant acting, direction and SFX. Storyline? I MEAN, WHAT?! Scott dead, Xavier dead, Jean dead - how is this Marvel?! Rogue, Mystique and Magneto depowered, and whilst Beast (Kelsey Grammar!) and ?Archangel were great, new characters, what happened to everything else? Nice to see the kid who played Descended Orlin Mark 2 in the film, he's obviously (deservedly) doing well for himself.
And that last scene - where the king twitched! It sounds so innocuous, but WOW! I know they wanted to kill the franchise dead, but did they have to do it this way? *sigh*
