Should we be battening down the hatches?


Welcome to North East weather watch! Today is expected to be cold but sunny and then we will get blown away from Friday until Sunday.
yes the weather forecasters are going into over drive telling us that there are 90 mile an hour winds on the way and that we need to be barricading ourselves indoors!!! ( well they didn't actually say that, I did and will be hopefully). Well in my books I would prefer this to snow!

No high winds or snow for the England lions as they marched on roaring.They drew their match in Soweto  with Jonathan Trott scoring 79 from 127 balls.

' Not too late for an England callup!!!' declared all the hacks!

'Let him find his feet again' declared, I, Lady Lainey.

Why oh why are they already setting Trott up for a fall?
He hit 79 which was brilliant but one innings does not a test player make, and does he need the added pressure now?
Well to be honest I think that he wants to be back in the team, and hope that if he makes it, it does not impact on him as it did last year.

Ben Stokes looks to also be trying to send the selectors a message as he was in good form in the BBL. he hit 77 off 37 balls.

Steve Smith the Australian captain was storming away  as he hit his fourth century in successive tests, which put his side in control over India.
Smiths 117 saw him equal Don Bradman and Jacques Kallis.

well it was another sing-a-long day in Super swanky Lady Lainey office as the boys continued to sing their versions of oldies on the radio.
Who will ever forget the late 70's hit

'I caramba'  by The Knack

or remember that

'Her name was Rio and she opened up my eyes' chorus by Duran Duran

Even better being the chorus to 'The sidewinder sleeps tonite' by REM

COME TO TASMANIA

If you think these are correct then I would suggest you 'google' them.

I cannot wait for today!
