    I remember it well. BBC's Breakfast TV - was that the Good Morning one? No I've just watched the BBC's sober affair Breakfast Time with Frank "Where's my whip" Bough and Selina Scott. It was a blast from the past with the news though - the Falklands war is mentioned, Reagan and Andropov, andwe still had Hong Kong then too!

    Could be worse. You have to be a pensioner to have been alive last time Wales beat the All Blacks, while Scotland are still waiting for their first win after 105 barren years. (Freudian typo, that came out "tears" at first! )

    How's the cricket going?

    We beat the South Africans, then lose to Bangladesh.

    The suprises of the tournament are your good selves and the West Indians - who England play next.

    That match against SA could have been in our favour but the last over by Nehra gave it away .

    Sounds like it was a cracker. I thought India was going to do it. It was the last over against England too I recall.

    It looks like England will be very lucky to qualify for the last 8, and quite right too, after getting into a winning position against Ireland and Bangledesh, they relaxed and lost. Its a kind of arrogance and they don't deserve to be there.

    Scotland should be up in arms to the extent of war this morning - how can they possibly win a rugby game in these circumstances?

    14 men sin-binned! I call foul!

    Just search YouTube for Ronnie Johns Chopper and it'll be the first video.

    Get that bloke to watch it. His name's not Stefan is it?

    It was the ref's fault. Imagine sin binning Barclay for gobbing off ! Then to compound it he fakes a calf injury when Scotland were in a certain try scoring position. The irony was just as we sorted out the scrum we reverted to poor handling , will we ever learn ? Great match though and well done England, cough, splutter.

    It was a good match. And what about Italy beating the French! It's getting so that any game is up for grabs - much better!

    Agreed mate, and here was me hyping up the French for the World cup. Still I have got Scotland's prize in the following image. At least we are going to win something.

    I hate it when England win undeservedly. I don't mind losing undeservedly though, funny that.

    That's a French thing. They're capable of losing to anyone on a given day, just as they can beat anyone if they really want to. (or when the ABs choke)

    I've become a fan of this; it's a blast! What is that speech anyway, Scottish ebonics?
