Damn, I was rather hoping someone would rise to it but your admirably adult response has probably put paid to that.

Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

Agreed with Marcus, first time I've seen Malinga and can't understand how he's allowed to do it.Comment

I'll tell you another thing about this World Cup malarky. It's so bloody long that by the time it's over David Gower will shimmer like bronze glinting in the Caribbean sun - he's getting more and more tanned every day, the posh, empty-headed tw*t.
What makes it worse is that every rain break (i.e. about one hour in every three), Sky switch back to whatever beachside hotel Gower and his chums are at and (a) they're sitting by the sea lapping up the sunshine and (b) they're all always talking complete bollocks.
Why don't they have all the matches on whatever island Floppy Gower is on?.

Alright fella's. As I mentioned I was over in St Kitts to watch some of the cricket, and I use the term cricket loosely as one of the games was Scotland v Holland. The highlight being a pissed up jock screaming "Get tae f*ck" "yiz a disgrace ya baaaaastards, I wouldnae pay a poond ta see yis" at the team, this was about 10 yards away from them as they passed by on their lap of (dis)honour with their "Thanks for your support" flag. Teehee.
There was a rumour that the Scottish team had been on the ale the night before, they were THAT bad.... more on that later.
The South Africa v Australia game was good, we were in the "Party" section which meant that you got a number of free beers and food with your ticket but there was no shade, so it was hotter than a hot mans hot thing who had come 2nd in a fookin hotitty hot hot competition. Needless to say they ran out of beer, food and water!
Surprised that the 'neutral' supporters were supporting SA instead of the Ozzies, my favourite spectator put down came from a St Kitts bloke who was badgering an Ozzie batsmen with "Give him sum o da chin music man" in a broad Caribbean accent. Had a toke with him as he explained that he wasn't referring to some Chinese song.
I liked the fact that they belt out music after each over and everytime a four or six was hit, that said I think I've heard enough Men at Work's "Down Under" or Toto's "Africa" to last me a lifetime. Give me Dreadlock Holiday any day of the week.
Strange but Australian supporters reminded me of Man U fans somehow.
Later on (wrecked) we went to the casino and a few of the Scottish players joined us at the Blackjack table, I felt a bit of a tit betting $5 and $10 hands when they were throwing $100 a go.
My Scottish mate kept nudging me to ask if the "pissed up" rumour was true -referring to the night before the Dutch game. Why he couldn't do it himself I have no idea, so I politely asked if they were aware of the rumour and if there was any truth to it. "Keep your eyes on the cards laddie and let's no be talkin pish" was all I got out of the guy so I thought it best to leave it there, not before twisting on 16 with a $5 bet when he had $100 on the table just so that he wouldn't get a 10 or picture card, that fooked him!
All in all a great trip - just thought I'd share
