Test Talk

There is a constant rush of 'Test ' talk in the newspapers today. The 'usual suspects' (eg Hussein, Bumble et all ) are sooo confident that England are going to be the strongest side they are putting it in print, however Ricky Ponting has stated that the Australians will win 3-1. Strong words and a  prediction from Pontng that the British press do not like.

Other test talk is that they are still hanging on until the last minute to see if Prior is fit to play. now as I see it, he played one warm up match  and then was crocked. So was he fit to go out to Australia in the first place?

Oh dear, as I have stated often in this blog, Twitter is a great social media tool, but for Kevin Pieterson it is the only way that he can say what he wants. This is due to his 'fans' being able to back him up and make his 'tough talk' seem viable. He took to Twitter yesterday to hit back at Australian newspapers who stated that ' he is so arrogant not even his own team like him'.
  Hahahahaha buy that journo a drink!!! What a cracking statement. KP arrogant????? His own team don't like him????? South Africa love him!!!!!!

He hit back in the most childish of terms by stating' I would have loved a Sydney front page....no one has heard of Brisbane outside of OZ'. To which the paper responded with the headline 'KP loves himself but not this boring city'. How I am laughing, he is a total idiot to rise to the taunts, but obviously on the advice of Piers Morgan, and all of Liberty X that any publicity is better than no publicity, he cannot keep his trap shut.

Other crickety news in the ICC T20 qualifiers, Scotland won their first match against Nepal, not a particularly high scoring match but it sends Scotland into the next match on a high.


Well super swanky Lady Lainey office was super freezing yesterday and luckily I had remembered to put on my thermals. Lets see if today is any warmer.


LT Towers II was the home of entertaining last night as I  opened the door to Daddy Rushworth and Pasha. We enjoyed treats ( well Pasha did and she knew where they were hidden) and coffee.  Hopefully the new acquisition with keep them both very busy for a couple of weeks ( or more?).

And finally it is only now a couple of days until the start of the first test, where I lady Lainey go to sleep with Geoff Boycott ( OMG!!!!)  I love listening to the cricket  on the 'wireless'. tired and cranky Lady Lainey towards the end of the week I think

Oh well off to negotiate the A1, so until tomorrow

Bon Journee!
