28 at present, thank you....

 

[CHAPPERS]

That's a RIDICULOUS tour considering there is the World Cup in March/April to prepare for.

England are gonna be burnt out again.

If I can get the CASH I'm coming to OZ though. It's probably even worth another credit card. Or just quitting my job and f***ing OFF out there anyway.

 

[Bozza]

Are you going U.B. ?

Not done an England tour before but would be very interested in this. Workloads may mean I still have 5 or 6 weeks leave to take at the end of next year which would work out well...

 

[Wozza]

I should be at the Sydney Test.

I'll avoid that and catch up with webbo in November then

I am planning to. Will lean on the family for some cash for my 30th. Trouble next year is the World Cup eats into funds and I still do not know if this lot are going to be good enough to make me redundant (not looking like going either way at present), so if I can raise the funds I will be out there.

See if you can get Phil to come out as well....

apart from the flight there and back

YAY! Schoolies week on the Gold Coast! Good CALL!

Sadly my birthday falls on the same day as a one dayer against the Aussies at the MCG, oh the hardship...

 

[The Great Cornholio]

And Freddie is 40/1 to win Sports Personality again! If we are 3-0 at the time, he could be a shoe in.

 

[Chicken Run]

I shall go to the sydney test then onto hobart to c some friends in time for the ODI

 

[Seasider]

can someone explain why we play australia 5 times in the VB series and New Zealand only 3 is there a typo?

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

We're still going to get caned, not enough strength in depth

 

[Brixtaan]

It's a hell of a long time to be away,no wonder they're all crying off now
