The longest 25 minutes of my life!!

I woke about 4.30 am, got up and put on the radio, to get the Cricket,not just any old Cricket, but The Ashes!! Nothing, they were nattering on about old cars, it was a phone in and as I waited patiently I made a cup of tea (how English can you get)and then, finally it came - we had won, what a joy. By 'we' of course I mean the Poms, I still consider myself a Pom, after all I have lived longer in England than I have Australia. They are funny these Aussies, they don't like losing, especially to the Poms so I will revel in my five minutes of glory, and they will do it all over again in a couple of years.
