The irony is that now I am off work I will be able to watch it. Double irony, its on Sky and I aint got / dont want that.
Radio for me.
Will anybody else be following it?
Normally I dont givva fork if a thread wanders orf, but maybe we could keep this for cricket fans and not get dragged off at tangents by things like cake, goats, feet, bees, breasts, tennis, the French, bananas, trains, breasts, cars, computers, nostalgia, Michael Jackson, breasts, lamps, spiders, cats, swine flu, flamethrowers, bleach, the war, lawnmowers, breasts and other general ephemera.
Aint gonna happen is it. noooo:

Have you heard about my scar?

Keep it to Ashes TG happy088
I looked at getting tickets for the Oval but they'd all sold out.... and the feckin' prices... eeek: eeek:

I know a very funny story about a library catastrophe concerning the Ashes

I am a keen fan of TMS. Even when it was on the TV (in the old days) I watched the pictures whilst listening to Johnners, Blowers, Bearders and co.
I refuse to pay £34 a month to Sky so will be listening only and watching the highlights on Channel Five in the evenings.
Meanwhile it seems that TMS will be broadcast on Five Live Sports Extra and not on Radio Four LW this year. Hope you have a DAB radio or, like me Freeview/Freesat so that you can get Five Live Extra ~ though there is always listening in via the 'pooter I suppose but I find that often breaks up.
(PS Don't forget Smiley is on tomorrow at 1500 hrs Radio Four)

We are ~ in a quiet and very English manner ~ restrained gloating I think would about describe it. 3 games to go before we can really let rip and Freddy's knee looks dodgy. noooo:

Forecast as a washout, so prolly retain the little urn. Thumbs:

but is that cos the weather man forecast Boogs would intervene?
Not good IF we retain the Ashes because of rain, need to win one more.

Even without the weather this should be a draw.

Yep but they have the runs on the board

Still got to bowl us out though. Boycott would relish the challenge. Thumbs:
