Thank flip it's F(ryan)day



I am so super flipping glad that it is F(ryan)day, it has been a very busy week here at Tykes Towers and it doesn't look to be getting any quieter at the weekend.

There is very little to report from the cricket world, apart from  the fact the Australians say that Joe Root could be a target for sledging  during the Ashes series. Well he isn't fat, he isn't married and he doesn't have any children, so lets see how inventive they are. Sad to say that if they put all their efforts into their cricket they may be on to a near winning team, leave the sledging out!

Tim Bresnan has signed a new contract for Yorskhire which sees him there until 2016. He has been with the club for over 10 years and made 125 first class matches, taken 353 wickets and scored 3628 runs. Top Tyke that Tim!!!


Things are not going so well in F1 were drivers are threatening to strike before the German Grand Prix if there are still the tyre problems that plagued the British Grand Prix last weekend. There have been numerous blow out with Pirelli tyres and as imagined this is causing concern with drivers. I hope that this gets settled soon and that safety is taken as the first priority.

In Le Tour I Lady Lainey am full of admiration for Geraint Thomas the double Olympic gold medallist who  is riding in the Tour DESPITE fracturing his pelvis in the big crash on Saturday!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Now I, Lady Lainey have had a fractured pelvis and I tell you, I couldn't even walk 5 days after it happened let alone get on a blinking bike and ride up and down hills or round hair pin bends. This man is raving bonkers and should be stopped, surely he is doing his body more harm than good!!!!

Mark Cavendish flipping well fell off his bike yesterday ( maybe he needs to borrow Dame Didi's tricycle) and only chuffing well ripped his shirt and got all dirty. I bet he had gravel rash too #jollyflippingpainful.

Today the stage is from Montpellier - Albi 205 km. There are two climbs in this stage but this is still a stage for the sprinters, who will want to be getting all the flipping glory , but with the mountain stages soon coming up they will be down the pecking order.

Well I am off to super swanky Lady Lainey office to shout at boys, drink pints of extra strong coffee, oh yes and Dame Didi is coming to stay this evening before we set off on our journey to the depths of the south of Blighty.......................................TBC
