exciting. To be in AND TO WATCH, QUORDLEPLEEN, AND TO WATCH

Sorry, CapK if my little jibe suggested that I was not on the right tack. I became a fan after watching West Island 1 split like a banana in San Diego, and Prada's outstanding performance made me a convert. I'd still like to know what they shoot ole Pete up with, though.

An aside from the (normally) supranationalist Max - The perfect cricket result. India, land of my forefathers, coached by a Kiwi, winning, which pales into insignifance against the really great part - AUSSIE LOST! Seeing the insufferable Shane Warne lose his cool and get hammered around the park is the ultimate spiritual tonic.

CRICKET ALERT

I'm about to start a fund to take a contract out on John Wright for high treason. They must pay him in chicken tikka masala, white axminster carpet and dead cats. If India can do that to the Australians, we may as well send the Auckland Grammar School first eleven to play India. If it has to happen, it may as well be done to Jafas.



America's Cup Alert

As for precious Pete, they shoot him full of speed, I'm sure of it. The prefrontal lobotomy has already taken.

Oh, and don't forget Kookaburra off Perth. But that was before you were a convert, wasn't it? The Australian banana boat.

Yesss!!!!

This, though, was of course only the icing on the cake - because a couple of days earlier (would you credit it?) England had come back from one Test down to beat Sri Lanka!

Have to say the India-Aussie series was more dramatic, though - final few moments of the third Test (19 runs to get, three wickets in hand!!) saw me give up on work all together and glue my nose to cricinfo. Oh dear...

Hurrah for England. Hurrah for India. And NZ not doing too badly against Pakistan either, eh?

cheer
