Thanks for that, in the last hour have taken a delivery of half a ton of split logs for firewood and as they have been dumped in our drive got to get them out of the way ASAP so proper wheelbarrowing scenes here in RH20 but see the Windies in a bit of trouble at 61-3!

It'll also be a bumper week for tourism in Antigua this week as a result of having the 3 ODI's all in the same place.

No, only two in Antigua, the third is in Barbados.

Knackered but it's all good as that's probably 12 months worth of firewood sorted.

As you say 225 shouldn't be a huge chase but this is England so it could be 75 all out...

My late father-in-law knew the Bocage in Normandy very well, he travelled through it with the Guards Armoured Division in June & July 1944...

Back to the game, England scoring at will, bowling sounds like rubbish, Curtley Ambrose not a happy bunny on TMS!

Poor from Stokes 113-4, there should be enough batting left to waltz home but this in England...

Woakes is unrecognisable from the County Trundler I saw at Horsham a few years back, possibly the most improved cricketer in the world over the past couple of years?

It seems that if Root makes a decent score then more often that not England win, if not they don't!

Obviously need to wrap him in cotton wool and keep him away from the IPL/Big Bash etc..
