Is there cricket going on now!? During the 'pics?

As it goes we are utterly **** at the whole Olympics thing.

Either way I know which is the bigger event in Ireland.

What am I saying, of course it's pissing it down, it's only a ******* bank holiday weekend.

and there was a thunderstorm like I have never seen for the best part of two hours. All I could do was stay there. Bit of a ******* when the Sky box crashed though

As it happens I was living in Wexford town in 1996, possibly the best ever time to live there.

Quite the party. f**k me a simply ridiculous amount of drinking.

they'd try and stay clear of the competition from the Olympics in order to maximise interest, but the typical cricket viewer is perhaps not that interestet in the olympic events.

the two best teams in the world. This game is taking place up in Yorkshire.

Quite frankly, sod the Olympics, in other words. Although, England can, of course, easily handle hosting both without breaking a sweat.

my life http://www.awimb.com/images/smiley_icons/smile.gif Friends who were in foreign parts and missed the whole thing have never forgiven me.

and they don't sell advance tickets for day five. We are a country of 60million people guns

Well, I guess we would also probably host winter sports that aren't in the olympics even if it were during the olympics.

we only have a limited opportunity for good weather :cough: so can't really clear two weeks of the season

wherever cheering key moments at some other sport during a test match :euro96:

Well that might just have been me but Middlesex won as well http://www.awimb.com/images/smiley_icons/cloudnine.gif
