A quick one on sport...

Glad to see that England won against France in the 6 nations...I'll be rooting or the Irish to win by 4 more points than France so that they win the title. Feel sorry for Josh Lewsy missing out on selection for England in Wales - I know from his BBC website collumn that he was desperate to play v Wales his welsh blood...

And glad to see West Indies beat Pakistan in the cricket world cup - always good to see the hosts to well in these tournaments...

Yes I agree about Josh: while he certainly didn't have a great game against France in attack, and made one very conspicuous error which he was fortunate didn't lead to a French try, he was otherwise sound as a defensive full back. I would have certainly thought he is a better ful back than Cueto and, other than for injuries, I wouldn't change a winning side: they showed more flair and good rugby in the French game than in about the last 10 games put together - even the lineout went pretty well!
Did you see the result of the Ireland/Zimbabwe game in the cricket? A tie! It was certainly exciting to watch, but I would have said the overall standard of cricket was about that of a goodish club game in England. Getting ready to watch England/New Zealand now.
