Just caught a few overs on the big screen between Tate Modern and Southwark St... sat eating a chicken katsu curry watching Cook edge closer to his ton.

Thought I'd manage to hold out until he made it, but after 15 mins got a tap on my shoulder from one of my bosses who's not normally even around this area... he didn't have a go or anything, just sat down and had a chat/watched it himself... but I figured it was best if I was the one that said we'd better be getting on!

ah bollocks I thought Cook would make it 100.

Same... so close.... Strauss is having a very sensible innings.

Bopara needs to pull something out... he reminds me of Graham Hick, sometimes.

YES!! Cricket talk on snh, never wanted to post cos i was guessing i would get slaughtered lol.

Thinking england will be out easily tomorrow unfortunately, we always seem to be getting into the tail after 1st day of batting.

If they bowl well, aussies all out soon come tomorrow.

Should've stayed in bed Strauss. It was looking oh so promising yesterday as well. Doubt we'll get to 400 now.

Another good 10th man partnership... great opening partnership... it's just everyone in the fucking middle, isn't it?

I had to subscribe to Sky Online to be able to watch this as we can't have a Sky dish.... shit keeps stalling and buffering... I'm watching "live" yet someone watching an OBO commentary told me via e-mail that Hughes had gone before I f*cking saw it.

No buffering during the adverts though... what a surprise!! FUCK YOU AND YOUR MONOPOLY MURDOCH!

i think one of my mates knows how to watch it for free online mate, i'll ask him and let you know

although it might be the same thing you're having the buffering problem with though

Pretty sure it's Sky, not my connection as I'm fine with the iPlayer or the ITV live thing... it's ok at the moment. If there's a free link that works better I'll be more than happy to cancel this... it's going as soon as the Ashes is over anyway!

Ponting's gone... he looked pretty hard done by, but it was definitely out from the replays... ball changes direction as it hits his bat.

Yeah my Sky player thing is buffering like a bitch too, if you've got linkage to somewhere else PM me please....

We have plasma screens showing it in the office. It's excellent.

i'm not sure but i think it might have been a way to the sky coverage for free, so that won't really solve the streaming problem

i'll ask him tonight anyway
