Is there no end to Enaglnd\'s cricket misery?

"Many buildings have experienced damage, with Lords Cricket Ground in London having it's roof torn off this afternoon."

(NB BBC's errant apostrophe, not mine.)

Well at least the rain won't have ruined the extensive array of trophies on display!

With any luck it was not the wind but the selectors raising the roof with a bunch of players who ought to be tarred and feathered.

FYI - here's one doing the round in Aussie at the moment. Cocky colonials.



Federal Court Ruling from the Melbourne Age, Australia (AP) ?


A seven Year old boy was at the centre of a courtroom drama yesterday when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him.

The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with the child custody law and regulations requiring that family unity be maintained to the degree possible. The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his Aunt beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her. When the judge suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy cried out that they also beat him.

After considering the remainder of the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among them, the judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose who should have custody of him. After two recesses to check legal references and confer with child welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to the English Cricket Team, whom the boy firmly believes are "not capable of beating anyone".

Panic? Couldnt care a damn really. But they are pathetic and the odd win here and there wont go anyway towards wiping out the abject surrender in Australia.When England won the ashes Australia fought hard. When Australia won, the English team just lay down.
