Grunt.

Why is that ?

Has he been caught chucking again?

Off in a few minutes to have the ticker checked over (routine test only).

So no more excitement today.

He stepped on a ball in the warm up. He did his ankle.

Please.

PLEASE turn on your tele....

P (17 overs England 68/0)

5 mins b4 lunch. Our 1st wicket. 1/112.

Poms won the session for mine.

**bitingmidge** · 4th August 2005, 10:30 PM

John,

It's not funny any more.

Please turn your television on.

John , could you please turn the telly on again...and hurry !

**Grunt** · 5th August 2005, 12:15 AM

I think he's turned it on and off 3 times in rapid succession.

197/4

**jow104** · 5th August 2005, 01:37 AM

Oh dear!

And I haven't put the TV on once today yet.

**bitingmidge** · 5th August 2005, 01:46 AM

292/5 not bad so far, and it looks like a first innings contest at least;

However I suspect that will be the Australian opening partnership, unless something happens to the pitch overnight.

Don't worry, this is Ponting's version of "I could beat you with one arm tied behind my back".

If the Poms don't win this one with all the help they've been given, they're never going to win one.

**Gumby** · 5th August 2005, 09:27 AM

I think John turned the telly off for way too long.

Im not that sure we will get that

It will be a nervous couple of hours in front of the TV tonight.

I'm with Silent here, I'm not sure we'll get that either, (without losing one or two wickets!).

I'm madly hoping that they'll have some sort of cricket channel in Singapore, or I'll be grumpy in Helsinki!

Cheers,

They're bound to have Sky Sports in Singapore surely. That's who Foxtel are getting their covervage from I think.

**HappyHammer** · 5th August 2005, 12:29 PM

407 woohoo, I'll now remain calm awaiting the draw.

HH.

you'd think that with a nickname like pigeon he'd have better footwork.... goose would be a better name...
