calling lardy

was hoping we'd have an unbiased Lardy account of the first day's play....think lardy and jgk when he arrives shd provide regular bulletins

Lardy is probably working out what to do on the weekend.

Lardy should have a big FB sign. Forummers will know it stand for Flaming Bails but everyone else will think it is his opinion of the Oz batting lineup.

Hehehe, we actually discussed this when he, BD and I were together in the Southern Stand during the Aus-NZ 2nd Test of 2011-12 season (yes, the Hughes c Guptill b Martin series), but dismissed it as, well, lame. My brother did it at the Gabba on Day 1 of T1 of the 2006-07 Ashes, but I had to tape the whole day and got a single freeze-frame of the sign in session 3 (after a Paris sweep shot, if memory serves). Hardly worth the texta ink.

"bonfire at bernies" is my banner for the G test....will be handing out pamphlets calling for a demo/funeral at CA HQ

aye....I predicted before seeing that bannie pitch after tea on 3rd day...I am looking good in the sweepstakes

When retirement arrives, h, I might look you up for a day of Test Cricket at the G. Have been to the mighty place just once. It was a way too short visit on a tour when I had a bit of time to spare on a business trip. I was having a marvelous time in the MCG museum and was happily discussing cricket stats and history with one of the MCG statisticians when time ran out and had to scoot to catch a plane.

excellent...done

Deal.

Perhaps we can get the pieman to swim across the Strait, and shake up a few Vomit posters as well. They tell me Nath is a funny chap.  

he makes up for my complete absence of charm

That's not what the ladies tell me.  

too old for that nonsense now S.... 

bump....am really looking forward to Lardy's report...

If I wrote one, it'd have to be a 'Once Upon A Time' story starring Agar, mentored by Boof/Schreck. Not much to add to what's already been written though. What a fairytale.
