Only one flag for me:

Former bookmaker I do my best not to attack folk's characters as much as possible, but I have never regarded Davies anything other than a horrid little man

I remember stuff from when I was 6. I remember the family holiday from when I was 5 in Weymouth- and the overnight coach journey to Paignton when I was 4. It'll do the kid no harm. She'll probably grow up loving music. I think it's okay as long as she's properly looked after.

From a neutral perspective, it does bother me that it was given. There was nothing in it and the forward dived. Sets a poor president.

I won't be having a Baileys every time a big name loses their seat. I once did that for the Boxing Day Test in Australia and England took 8 wickets before lunch. The other half was not best pleased the following day.

I remember England winning 8-0 over there. Then when Turkey got better it took a 'Wise hand' to win the match.

Well, I've booked next Friday off. I do love the election all nighter. A multitude of Portillo moments await.

Quite, and in parallel he put a lot of lives at risk too. On balance, he was a force for truth and irresponsibility at the same time. A friend of mine is rather proud that his name is mentioned in the Wikileaks documents. Albeit as a reference to him being the baby son of the main subject.

Oh yeah. I give up. It's Netherlands or Slovakia in the next round and we find out after sunset. I'll settle on that.

At times they just seemed to be whamming it down and often short. It was painful to watch. His technique is hardly a work of perfection and keeping a calm line and length is often the key. One ball he moved a good set of stumps away to create room. The last thing you bowl is a bouncer. A yorker...

So basically we need either Czech or Georgia to win if we are to avoid the oranges. I'm guessing the next round won't need so much mathematics.

I didn't know Notyetdecided had qualified let alone made the second phase. Is this one of those new countries after the Yugoslavian break up ?

Not forgetting that last year we set Leicestershire 490 odd to win and only came home with about 15 runs to spare.

Not surprised. He probably had indigestion.

I wouldn't say that Sussex is a cornerstone, a lot of the seats have gone the other way at times here. But Chichester will be interesting.

Don't forget that random trumpet sound where a few kids let out a cheer and adults feel the need to let out a muffled hurrah. The apathy can be smelt through the TV screen on a regular basis. The announcer taking consolation that at least two nine year olds are jumping like deranged monkeys in...

Or the T1. I think most of the white ball crowds could concentrate for three minutes. Just.

:clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap: Never in doubt. My little Sussex flag is gently waving in the breeze from the window. GOSBTS
