Saw a picture of the auzzie captain smoking a cigarette. I know ex smokers like myself are the worst turncoats, but at that level of the game tobacco is a no no imho. Anything that can possibly effect your game downwards will be a big negative.

England are playing well, it always is a tough game with the Australians, and the news is showing the after effects.

Maybe the best thing about the British Empire was cricket. Just about every nation it conquored has beaten the crap out of England at cricket, and made that nations pride in the process. This includes tiny nations like the West Indies. They are going through a bad patch at the moment, but how that tiny nation ever became such a prominent force in cricket is a bit of a mystery.

All in all, I'm glad to see we are still holding our end up against the auzzies. It's all very much the English thing to do -g-

And btw cricket does have a following in financial circles in the UK. One does not have to look far. This slighty left wing anarchist does like to read the Telegraph. Been reading about Alex whining about Englands chances with the auzzies for some time now. Here is the latest cartoon. Not sure what this means for blackberries..
