Ha, yeah, but when I suggested having more channels, my dad said 'we don't want any more flippin channels'. My mum is fine, but my dad is so stubborn.

As I've said before before, I do think he WILL be the GOAT one day, but I don't think he's quite just there just yet.

Ha, ditto. Dad had one, never ever used it. It's stuck in a drawer somewhere. Every time I ring my mum she rejects the call by mistake. Still can't get the hang of the red and green little icons to slide, so slides her finger in the wrong direction.

Yeah, my thinking. They even have 3 for a pound down the charity shop, but my parents have stacks of DVD's. Only thing I can think of is to buy a shed load and take away their old ones.

How old are they if you don't mind my asking?

Yeah, good shout. Ideal scenerio would be the old DVD rental Blockbuster places that used to abound. Could buy them some DVD's but it would be a bit of a waste. They never watch anything twice.

Yeah. Just wondering if there is anything through the telephone line maybe, but clutching at straws. They won't even record anything, so if anything is on TV after their bedtime they just miss it rather than record it to watch the next day. Tough.

Sofa. Water. Sky Sports News. Same old shit.

I voted to stay last time. If there's another vote I think I will vote to remain. Fickle I know.

And lo and behold, we get that wicket. Now we have the player in named after my younger day mission to make love to the Jam's frontman. Dickwella.

It's looking a bit worrying. Need one wicket. Get that and it changes everything, but obviously if these two keep going they will win easily.

Bloody hell, talk of polar opposites!! Watching the test this morning, but then popped to Tesco at 7. Had 5Live on and they said there had just been a wicket. They went to Jonathan Agnew, who said England got very lucky and that it was one of the flukiest wickets you will ever see and that the...

Aerial Pete? Yeah, I know him....or at least my friend does.

Life is so cruel sometimes.

I'm fine, except I woke up this morning to find me still married.
