Awful display.
An obviously successful attempt by young Australian women to put the men off their game.
Shame, Australia! Shame!
Not even much chance of the weather helping, sorry.

Well, that was that, then.
And nice to see the game being played in such good-natured fellowship: http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/c...y-8960984.html

I hope you northern lads caught up with a little of the "world cup" final.
If ever it needed proving that league is not a game worthy of a world cup, I trust the 34-2 drubbing in the final will dispel any myths on the subject.
What a shambles.
One of the things I like best about league is that every single time the Kiwis get cocky about their chances of beating Australia, they get slaughtered. Alas, last week, they'd been reading their own press about what a great side they were, and thought that just had to turn up to win.
Australia taught them a valuable lesson that winning must be done on the scoreboard, not in the head.

I missed it - again!! I have no power over the day. It is at night that freedom is bestowed - in terms of the telly anyway.
I've seen the score, but will still watch it on the I-player - if I get chance this week.
Auburn pulled off an amazing win over Alabama in final second of the game.
Pretty exciting stuff.
"34 -2" would that be a cricket score or round football?
^Was that Rounders GG.
I think the Kiwl's were knackered after the semi final against our lot - the best match I've seen in many a long year - that went down to the last second too.
To be honest, the aussies were a class above everyone else. Ah well, now for the Cricket...

A nice warming stout for the northern hemisphereans, and an ice-cold for us southerners, sweltering under 28-30 degrees.

Cheers!
Send a crate to the Waca would you.

I was on my way down to spray some WD 40 on door knob, but I see you managed to open up.
Send a warm Drambuie my way please.
I'll have a bourbon.
It's been so busy this year - I've hardly had chance to do 'owt.
My two brothers and I are in the process of arranging a curry in Sheffield after the success of the England Ireland trip. One of us has even mooted the possibility of a continental trip in the future. Bruges was suggested, but I'd be happy with anywhere. It does open the opportunity of sampling some authentic Belgian beer though.
Unfortunately, you'd be surrounded by authentic Belgians as well!
I see the Ashes are back in safe hands for a while.
On current form, we have a couple of good fast bowlers right now - just cleaned out the Windies - so I wondered if the England chaps might like to pop over for a game or two after they're finished in Australia.

A round of potato vodka to our fifty year old sod buster.
Oh yeah! Count me in for another member of the 50+ club!

Thanks guys - the drinks are on me.
Christmas Eve. Time rolls on.
So the allotment shop has shut for 1 week. I'll be down there digging once the festivities start to grind on.
Last week I was in the allotment shop - our members are coming in to pay their rent at the moment. So this guy come in and Vic, the secretary says - remind me of your name. This bloke says Steven Hawkin, and I, fool that I am, asked whether his book was selling well.
He expressed his extreme displeasure and went on to detail:
he gets this everywhere he goes
his name is Steven not Stephen
his surname is Hawkin not Hawkings
he's not an author
he's never nurtured an interest in theoretical physics or mathematics
he's not in a wheelchair
he doesn't need assistance to speak
and he is significantly younger.
Which - due to his annoyance - was much funnier that my foolish quip. I've made another friend I think.
