Wow, I didn't expect that!
Fantastic performance from the England boys yesterday that shut up more than a few aussies that were sat around me at the 'G. Great recovery to restrict them to 252ao when they should have got well over 300, followed by Colly's 2nd consecutive century and good contributions from Belly and Fred. I must say though that the 'G is awesome and certainly the best cricket venue in the world. The only downside is that tickets for the 2nd final in Sydney tomorrow are going for double face value and it would cost me 300 bucks and a night in the airport to get there - tempting, but not that tempting!
One negative comment from yesterday was the farcical decistion to restrict drinks to two per person, making it a pain in the backside to get a round in for the three of us (me, Dom and the old man). Every other ground (even the fascists at the Gabba) would let you buy 4 or 5 at a time - it was a minor annoyance on a great day. that was finished off with a bottle of:
Crown
A lager produced by Fosters, and a hell of a lot better than the Carleton Mid they were serving in the ground!!! A quiet day today I think before settling in to watch the match on the tele tomorrow. I'm 3-1 so far!
A very happy England fan
