I've been pondering my options today.

Up for work at 530 most days anyway, so thinking about making it a couple of hours earlier and watching a few hours before work, then got a portable dab radio if anything goes on past 930 when i'll be walking around. Then having a nap when I get back from work 2-6ish to make sure i'm not completely fucked

Will stay up and at least watch the first over tomorrow, hopefully it'll be better than Harmisons delivery to start the ashes last time we were down there http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7Y6T44tzIc remember when he bowled that, the times went a bit over the top, and projected the destination had it carried on forever, would of hit Hawaii or something

I can see a few late ones happening. If it gets tense on a final days play I may do an all nighter.

Yeah, if it gets down to it i'll sort something out.

Best chance we've had in years, so should be a good series, hopefully KP will get his finger out and score some runs, even though we've been coping with him being shit, would be nice if he did something!

well I was up at 5 yesterday and didnt get my nap in the afternoon, fell asleep at half 11! Doh!

200-4 not bad seeing as Strauss was out third ball! I dont rate cook in the slightest but he seems to be doing ok for once!

We'll skittle them for 100. Can't ever rate an innings until both teams have batted.

We'll lose by an innings I reckon. They have the momentum after that hat trick.

Not a bad shout. Take that hat trick away and at 200-4 we were doing well. So it's not because we are shit that we may lose this first test.

It makes me laugh though, some England fans emailing BBC/Sky Sports slating the team after day 1!!! Not got a clue.

I was on the wind up mostly.

And the rest was justified due to 5 years of frustration.
