Aaarggh.

I listened to a couple of the tailenders podcasts on Wednesday evening on a long journey home and now can't get this tune out of my head. It's been 3 days now 😩 i hope it goes soon, it's driving me mad.

What is the longest you've had an earworm for and what was it?

Did you see they're playing at the Hackney Empire?
I'm very tempted at only £20 a ticket

It sold out within hours. I only heard them announce it too late to try.

DappledThings · 25/08/2019 15:18

Cometh the hour, cometh Jack Leach...... maybe

YEEESSSSS

Oh my gosh, and they say test cricket is dead.

Apologies to those who had to "listen" to DappledThings and I talking cricket

I'm actually crying.

Drama was massively increased because when we had 2 to go DS needed a poo and we had to pause tv. He's had trouble with poo for months and he just did a massive one on the loo for the first time ever. It's a doubly amazing day!!!!!

BringMeTea · 25/08/2019 16:32

OMG OMG OMG!!!!!!!!!!!

DappledThings · 25/08/2019 16:37

I'm off to drink gin in mighty celebration. Enjoy the rest of the day fellow cricket fans! Smile

That was edge of the seat stuff. bloody brilliant!

PinkSparklyPussyCat · 25/08/2019 18:29

I started to dream yesterday but when we lost early wickets this morning I began to doubt we could do it.

I loved watching Jack Leach polish his glasses before facing up to Pat Cummins etc - how English!

That was the best 1 evah!
