Hi, Test Cricket, England vs Australia, MCG, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, Boxing Day 26/12/2010, with my good friend Jack, his son Tim and daughter Lisa. First time for me at the MCG (Melbourne Cricket Ground) one of the biggest Stadiums in the world with a seating capcaity 105,000. First day of the 5 day Test Match with 85,000 + in attendance, Australia all out for 98 runs, England went on to score 157 runs with noone out by stumps around 6.40 pm. A terrible performance by the Aussies, the Brits were just too good for us. We now have a 1% chance of winning the Test. But a good day, a few beers, some chips and good company. Enjoy -comments welcome Cheers George

Hi George,
Well for an Antipodean to say it was a good day is a blinder for me!
23 years and England have finally won the Ashes in Australia this has been a long road and the good news is England have got a young team and are just coming together so who knows possibly we have a chance to get more good days?
I will send you a full story of the Thai end and our family Xmas in 2011
I would like to see MCG one day but probably it will be in the next life eh?
Or maybe it will be the Melbourne Cup as I think I will be a "Horse"!
Happy New Year
Len & Lena
