    I'd have gone a tenner, so no big loss. I might just chuck it on Afghanistan to beat England for a laugh. Should be around 20-1 but England always seem to find a lesser team to lose to each World Cup

    Bangladesh would be a better bet. The game's played in Adelaide, the slowest of the Australian pitches and also turns. Bangladesh have some good spinners and a certain Shakib Al-Hasan.

    That's a relief, although the whole episode still strikes me as rather odd.

    Yes, but when you think of Michael Schumacher and Jules Bianchi, it's just a relief he's been able to walk out of hospital.

    Of course. I just spoke to one of my journo friends who covers F1 (and is on his was to Barcelona for the test as we speak) - they're all a little flummoxed as to the truth of this all too. I'm sure it will out at some stage...

    DOG FOR SALE
    A man sees a sign outside a house -
    'Talking Dog For Sale .'
    He rings the bell, the owner appears...
    And tells him the dog can be viewed in the back garden.
    The man sees a very nice looking Labrador Retriever sitting there.
    "Do you really talk?" he asks the dog.
    "Yes," the Labrador replies.
    After recovering from the shock of hearing the dog talk,
    The man asks, "So, tell me your story."
    The Labrador looks up and says,
    "Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young.
    I wanted to help the government, so I told the Secret Service.
    In no time at all they had me jetting from country to country
    Sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders.
    Because no one imagined that a dog would be eavesdropping,
    I was one of their most valuable spies for eight years."

    "But the jetting around really tired me out,
    And I knew I wasn't getting any younger
    So I decided to settle down.
    I signed up for a job at Heathrow Airport
    To do some undercover security work,
    Wandering near suspicious characters and listening in.
    I uncovered some incredible dealings
    And was awarded several medals.
    I got married, had a few puppies, and now I've just retired."
    The man was amazed
    He goes back into the house and asks the owner
    How much he wants for the dog.
    "Ten quid," the owner says.
    "£10.....!!? But this dog is absolutely amazing!
    Why on earth are you selling him so cheaply?"
    "Because he's a lying bastard,
    He's never been out of the garden."

    Wow this guy on Catfish is the most shallow jerk I've ever seen on this programme. He was the one who wanted help because he thought his online gf wasn't who she said she was.... and it turned out she used a few fake pictures, however she tried to come clean several times in the past but each time he had a hissy fit because she wasn't the attractive girl he thought she was..... so she (desperate to keep him) backtracked. But everything else was real (i.e. the only thing that wasn't was the picture and the name). Honestly, what a shallow twat. Sure, if someone isn't as attractive as you imagine it may be a shock, and lying isn't cool, but crying over it (literally) is embarassing (this was when she tried to tell him before who she really was and he got all upset).... especially as he claimed to love her as much as she did. Then when he does meet her, he's 'like oh I only want to be friends.Funny, you weren't saying that five hours ago when you thought she was more attractive. Shallow. She deserves so much better.

    Cynical ploy to make sure she gets all the headlines tomorrow regarding an otherwise uncared for album release, or genuine old-school fall. The choice is yours :)

    Just had to call the authorities up here at this time because a group of south London lads were attempting to break into our flat and trash the joint because one of the girls who lived here 'ruined his night' by stopping him sexually harass (or attempt to) her best friend in the nightclub.

    There's some weird, weird people out there. Was stood at the door hammering it for a good 10 minutes or so before anyone arrived, too.

    Could've been interesting if the door had actually given way to them...
