Well that looks like a mystery solved - scooby snack for mdcc

It was a scooter not a bike may have been electric but still ???

This evening cycling towards Earlsfield station I saw a couple of lads 12-14 riding a scooter - the passenger had no helmet, the lad steering, was no more than 14, the thing had no lights and had pedals which where spinning like crazy. I pulled up beside them at some traffic lights and said in a concerned but friendly way that they would get pinched if the police stopped them. They both piped up that they had been stopped already and the police said it was OK, I told them not to be silly, they turned of Garret Lane and I went on my way. It was a bit of a bizarre moment, getting more odd the more I think about it.

Thanks again - GLWS.

Could I take the Giant saddle off your hands - I'll pm you later.

My Giant saddle is past it.

Well done Aus - their best team for years. Troy Cooley must get a lot of credit for that bowling attack. and DL has helped immensely. We need to work out a few places now, opener, no3, keeper and a spinner and plan for at least two new fast bowlers one now ( I am really beginning to wonder who's cat Finn has shagged) and one ready in two years time.

Cycle Cops at the junction of Lillie Rd and Fulham Palace Rd. Last evening 18.40 ish.
They looked cold and sullen, it struck me as an odd time to be covering this junction as I and I seemed to be the only one out.

Well so far today it's been a bit better

Got a really close pass going down St Johns Hill close to Clapham Junction last night, from a big new beemer. Caught up with him and proved that I was spooked by not being very eloquent, himself and his female passenger looked guilty and shocked. Took a long time for me to calm down, I really felt like he'd not given a fuck and was just showing off. WAC.

It would be nigh on impossible to find a clarets fan with anything positive to say about OC because of the way he left us. I don't think anyone with cash, which is what seems to be a massive part in his decision process, is going to take a risk on him now.

Well done to Aus for winning that test - they played well and we were far from our best or even more like it not that competitive. In order to turn things around the players and support team will really need to show some real fortitude not just bluster and bluff.

The way the press is handling and setting the tone and I am not just talking from one side or the other, really bothers me, justifying shitty behaviour from both sides will have a trickle down impact.at club and junior levels. I am all for wanting to win and use of a sharp comment here or there on the field, but seeing and hearing the sort of blunt shite and reacting with said same (rather than ignore and store) is unedifying at best. Having played a lot I worked out that the gobshites were generally not that good and when they got a bit back did not like it - but the silent bristling types who were good, well they had to be treated with respect,

For what its worth I think Finn for Tremlett and bringing Ballance in would help things along and playing a truly positive game, with contributions from all and rather less posturing would help

I am surprised its 20 for me - most as an away fan supporting the Clarets

Highlights on Pick TV at 10.00 this evening - presented by Mark Nicolas, I suspect its going to be like the Channel 5 programme.

Yep I guess that's what distinguishes it. I am a bit of a fan of the Islay malts but when I was flush I tried it on the recommendation of a friend and liked it - but I have not had any for a few years

^Springbank? Your knowledge seems much better than mine but Springbank is different to almost every other malt I've tried

Ed -
Early 90's blue Giant peloton 7200, wonky back wheel, banjaxed saddle

Lady checking her i-phone and cycling going through Colliers Wood southbound along CS7 this evening - I did offer a gentle "It might be an idea to keep an eye on the road". But thought something less charitable about the gene pool, how the fuck do you do it and such

31/60 and we lost against the hammers-not sure if happy, but not sad.

2-0 against rangers, it is just so good to be a claret at the minute

Had a bottle of Moorhouse Blonde Witch, really splendid. £1.50 at Morrisons I'll have more

Ed Scoble on South Park Rd Wimbledon this avo, whilst on my rounds - could only manage a "Mr Scoble" rather than anything meaningful

Cannot stop grinning at our season so far - top of the league and all that. Did not expect a start like this at all - Sean Dyche is ace, new players seem to fit well and everyone is playing well. Tis grand but paying some of the better performing sides soon - that should tell us a bit more.

I have just had a thought - as we've been having a back and forth about spinners.

Tredwell has done a decent job when he's been asked - offers control, not a fragile bloke, capable with the bat and decent fielder. What has he done to be ignored?

Spot on about the late declaration, another 50 odd runs wont make a blind bit of difference - Smith had his ton anyway.

The key difference between these sides is the ability to spot and exploit the key moments in matches, England have it. The late Australian declaration this evening is an example of a missed opportunity - irrespective of if it worked or not, it would have shown confidence and control.

Forecast for Saturday is not too clever either.

Thanks!

I was going to bite - but decided not to either.

However.....

The track at The Oval is decidedly British and is not, as far as I can ever remember, conducive to spinners at both ends in the first session of the first innings of a test match. At least not for English spinners (have we ever had two decent spinners at the same time?)

It certainly didn't appear to be today either.

We have produced decent pairs of spinners but tend not to pick them at the same time

Panesar/Swann
Edmonds/Emburey

But your point about the pitch is accurate.
