Lords a lordy

It all happened in London yesterday.

At Lords after the English bowlers did all the hard work in the first two sessions to dismiss Australia for 190, the Australian bowlers obviously stung by some of the comments about them being too old, replied in kind and England were 92-7 at the close.

Glenn McGrath was the man, as he has been for Australia time and again. The damage was done in an astonishing 31 ball spell where he took 5-2. Anyone betting this test will last 5 days?

Elsewhere, London was attacked by Carry On al Qaeda who let off a couple of stink bombs on the tube and a firecracker on a bus. I assume they were stink bombs or why else would the police turn up in full chemical protection suits? No nasty substances were found two weeks ago, there has never been a chemical attack in London. Why the goon suits? The politics of fear?
