A local village cricket team who are playing on Sunday have said that the Australian batsmen are very welcome to join them.

Apparently they need people to help behind the bar.

Yes, with plenty of time for a couple of drinks before lunch. Absolutely brilliant. Well done lads.

The Australians have taken the Ashes defeat hard. They've started drinking Vegemite!

Pathetic display by England. The Aussies have learned regrouped and fought back. As we know that they would. England have learned nothing!

Just a pity the Aussies didnt learn,regroup and fight back a bit sooner in this series,then we might not have had the dead rubber we are playing now.

I got fed up with watching England stumbling along so I dropped in for an hour to see our village team playing local rivals Winterbourne. It was the last home game this season at Sleepy Hollow; what a splendid place to play cricket.
