Ronnie B is in the form of his life. He looks good in the nets. Did you see that cover drive?

Mr Brass, you are a cruel, cruel Monkey. Kick an elf while he's down, why don't you?

Surely I (of all people) am allowed? I mean, I was kicking him whilst he was up. Think Dello and mesen (regs-styles anyway) are the only one with credibility left.

As Janis Joplin used to say

Yeah, get it, want it, need it,
Get it, grab it, hold it, need it, want it,
Get it, need it, want it, hold it,
Get it, squeeze it, love it, touch it,
Use it, need it, want it, get it,
Need it, want it, hold it,

Yeah hey, get it while you can, baby,
Yeah hey, get it while you can

Alex Wakely still has credibility. Jack Brooks has lost his, though.

I tried, but the f*cking BCCI started demanding money for production equipment.[/quote]

Just call the pictures from your abode. That's what we all do.

Aye, grab it against the only style of bowling he's any use at facing - dobbing nothingness.

So you didn't see it either.

You're just a zero-credibility postive-taker like the rest of us.

Aye... aye.. but they're both qunts.

Well, to be fair, what chance have they had, playing for N'hants?

I'm reliably informed that he scratched two singles and a two, squeezed through the leg side.

btw: Did you SEE Wakely's silky cover drive last season?

It must have been about the middle of June .... v Holland, possibly.

Well, to be fair, a good chance seeming as one's been here since he was a nipper and t'other was playing for Oxfordshire... unless I've stumbled into this magical fairy world where trees are made out of cheese straws and Oxfordshire are better than Northants.

I saw a lot of things, Peter, a lot. I saw prawn crackers. I saw the pavement from up-close. I saw Jesus doing 'The Thump'. I saw little kittens doing modulo-arithmatic. I saw Penny Crayon draw herself into real life. And yes, I saw AW's cover drive. I also saw his vicious and aesthetically pleasing cut shot. What I didn't see was enough centuries.

One a sexual qunt and one just a plain qunt?

One's a prick tease and the other's a slapper.

Re: not enough centuries.

You might see a couple of those from Old Trafford.

No, I meant of not being qu*ts.

Jonny's out. Gives the new skipper time to knock off a few runs.

Broady and Broady at the crease.

Which one's from Leics?

Doubtful. He's the Shane Watson of CC..

So Mumbaiaa have a W'ankar, a Thakur and a Thakkar bowling.

Onomatopoeic?

Not alot. I mean look at David Willey. Poor bloke had three incidents of rudeness happen to him in two hours

Faux-blond, rippling with muscles in Olympian fashion, and with a permanently sour-pained face?

At least he's not a Peter.

Well, that and getting to 60 and out.
