Change with the scenery

[boyofbadgers]

Geoff Boycott has just complained that the Sri Lankan bowling attack "wouldn't frighten me mum". Ladies and gentlemen, summer has arrived.

Edited for further classic commentary:

Blowers: "This Cook plays like he doesn't want to get out. Almost Boycottian."
Boycott: "And that's a good thing..."

Radio is yr friend!

If cricket is started now, doesn't that mean it will keep happening until Monday, and you and Pete will miss most of it due to ATPing?

[boyofbadgers]

It will keep on 'til Monday, but radios are remarkably portable devices, is it not?

[atommickbrane]

Ha ha ENJOY ATP :)

[boyofbadgers]

Pbbbt. Cricket and festivals are v.compatible.

Hurrah. It's like the first spring buds, regular as clockwork.

"wouldn't frighten me mum"

To be fair, after Birthing Boycott, there's probably not much to fear in the world...

[boyofbadgers]

Aye. Though according to that nice Mr Selvey this is the earliest ever start to a home test series. Maybe it's just the glorious weather that's making it seem normal.

[plumsbitch]

That second quote is marvellous.

Isn't it just? Practically* all you need to know abt Geoffrey in three easy sentence fragments.

It just needs a sound effect of a woman being slapped to complete the picture...
