Most of you Philistines won't understand this, but today is the opening day of the first test at Lords.
I for one have packed my Wisden, my train-spotting anorak and am heading to Lords at the weekend.
Hopefully there will be some decent action on the weekend.

looking forward to it. In an unprecedented show of cross border solidarity I hope the Ozzies get humped. :)

'all the british ever gave us were trains that don't run, a game nobody understands and a beer we can't drink.'
better than baseball, though. the outfits, at least.

this is pup's (michael clarks) last chance to prove himself, he started his career last year in a blaze of glory, but is now is very out of form. i don't why all the hype about dizzy or kaspa, they should bring in damien wright from tasmania, the best swing bowler going round at the moment!

The Aussies wont win, (if I tell myself enough maybe Ill beleive it!)
