Well news of the weather here in the North of blighty is ...................................well weird t say the least, it is very grey and over cast, no sunshine, but over bearingly hot, I think we may have a storm today even though the weather forecast says that we won't. Flipping hope so as it is 6.00am and I am very very hot.
Today is the start of the first Ashes test and Captain Cook is ready for battle . England are favourites to win, but it is really anyone's game. Lets see how the first day goes. I couldn't be bothered to read what 'Freddie' Flintoff had to say about the match as predictably he would be singing the praises of his 'besty' KP and obviously England would be nowhere without the said person.
Ricky Ponting has also followed in the lead of Glenn McGrath by saying that Australia should not be dismissed,
Do they know something that we don't???
The Tyky Vikings were in action last night in a T20 against Leicestershire. Wow, Jackie Brooks the headband warrior showed what he is made of taking 5-21 and giving yorkshire their first win in this season of T20's Roll on Friday.
Over at The Riverside former besty home county of Durham took down Derbyshire in a day ( well very nearly!). Derbyshire started the day 15-1 then were 113 all out, Chris Rushworth saw them off with figures of 6-64.
Over in La Belle France the 100th tour is motoring ( OK cycling) on and Mark Cavendish was reported to be the cause of a bit of a crash. Something which he strenuously denied.
Today the tour is going to be cycling through some wonderful places as they start at Avranches and end at Mont St Michel ( tres belle). Tomorrow they start in Fougeres, which I know personally as it took me 300hours to drive thre a couple of years ago with Dame Didi's instructions ( 'lets drive there on every farm track available!'). So its a flipping big 'Allez Froomey' and lets get back on the bikes.
So as I am gazing out of the window I am trying to decide what to wear for super swanky Lady Lainey office, its a toughy!
And we are still on baby watch as the little blighter is showing no signs of appearing.
Until tomorrow, when I will fill you in on all the exciting 'stuff'
