Merry old England
We were there, boys, we were there.
Just in case it doesn’t get any better than this during the Ashes summer, let’s briefly throw our hats (or as on Monday evening at the Rose Bowl in Southampton, cardboard beer trays) in the air and celebrate England thumping the Aussies. A sharp low sun cut across a heaving ground as the cheers rose inexorably and the obliging visitors did everything they could to make a bits & bobs England team look like whipcrack world-beaters.
They’re not, of course, so as it most likely won’t get much better than this…oh, wait. If you, dear reader, are from the west country, it just did.

Rolf Harris, Rupert Murdoch, Harold Bishop, AC/DC – your boys took one hell of a beating.
