When that news broke I thought that they were trying to say he wasn't playing 'cos he was injured !!!!!

And the joke was going around that we had 11 on the field and the Windies had 50,000 :laugh:.

I seen it on the news sport on the first day of the test. I thought they said he was being left out. Not a good advert for the hotel, although they never named it.

Windies had a secret weapon. Bed bugs, poor ole Stuart Broad got ate alive by the things.
I knew there'd be a good excuse :nod: That pitch looked a bit iffy too. Had the bugs been at that as well?

Have recorded but not watched yet, Willpar.
It's in the queue because the Test Match was on until 10 pm for 4 nights (well, 3.5 really :rolleyes:).

Quite a programme !! Such a h-u-g-e bird - unbelievable that they can glide effortlessly in between branches in a forest.
Felt sorry for the lady, but if a goshawk is what it takes then good luck to her.

I think the lady had one before Placi. Or she was in with people who had them. That is why she wrote the book H is for hawk. The programme we seen was after the book.

Winter watch was good last night. Those Turnstones knew how to get food in the winter. But yes, I liked it a lot.

Yes, Willpar, the original goshawk (Mabel) helped her to cope with the early death of her father, and led to the one in the film, Lupin, some years later.
I reckon goshawk training is not for the fainthearted!
