Did u see Flintoff batting.

Absolutely hilarious that guy is a legend.

He got 6-5-6 of Lee.

I swear the ball went out of the ground rofl.

That was fantastic.

Reminded me of Botham at Headingly 1981 against Lillie.

Watching us caning the Aussies in the cricket



canning would be the 230 run demolition you experienced in the first test.

yeah flintoff played well, I was near tears towards the end (honestly cricket and swimming are the only things that make me feel proud to be Australian). At least he didn't get that hat-trick. I'm not giving up hope yet, c'mon Warnie and Binga!

either way when we get McGrath back you poms are toast.


ahem

Edit: Sorry, misunderstood:P That was NOT my perfect summer day... lol

Perfect summerday must have been in Italy one week ago, on the beach north of Marina di Pisa, just after having a delicious pizza on the beachside place, great weather, not a single cloud in the horizon, water temp above 22 degrees C. *mmm dreaming* Teddybears Sthlm on the ears...

Shameful? no bloody way! we came back from the dead and almost snatched victory. Lee, Warne and Kasper fought so damn hard. I was so proud of them. Either way Thalbergmad (meyrickfan?) you lot win one test and fancy yourselves winning the series? turn it up ;)

 I am sorry, but since I left Brazil, I have never had a perfect day again, especially in the summer. The only things that sustain me now are God, my studies, my music, classical music, and the piano. In Brazil, every day felt like worth living to the fullest, and every day was special. Here each day is nothing but another normal day, or worse. And I must say, I got used to it.

So the closest that I can get to a perfect summer day (In Texas):
Very heavy rain
Rachmaninoff's Prelude Op. 23 No. 5 playing on the background.
That is about it. It is just way too hot to go outside (Texas summer)
