What a farce the cricket turned into. I understand the Pakistani complaints, but the umpires aren't stupid, they must have been pretty sure about what they'd seen...and the Pakistani official's explanation didn't realy make much sense. If they HAD just wanted to protest for a few minutes, why didn't they do something when the umpires, Bell and ( Read more... )

I'm back!! These 6 weeks went incredibly quickly...

Anyway.... What a nightmare...I flew back Friday night just after the huge security scare so we weren't allowed to take hand luggage on.

Incredible. I'm fed up of excuses though...*Prays feverently that Flintoff, Vaughan, Anderson etc will be fit for later this ( Read more... )

It's so hot here today...in the sun I mean. It wasn't so bad this morning but now....I think it's killing my appetite. Well, its either that or the amount of sangria I drunk last night....lol.
