As of 2 weeks ago, in the entire history of test match cricket England had won 2 tests in Pakistan. Two weeks later it's now 4.
As the great Jimmy Greaves often said 'it's a funny old game'

England haven't been there for 17 years and there has only ever been 24 test matches in pakistan. I seem to remember graeme thorpe winning a test match and series there in the pitch black.

Terry hall of the specials.... Too much to young . During the mid / late 70's I spent 4 years living in Coventry studying for a degree. I saw the Specials in a local club when they were popular locally, but hadn't made it to national stardom.
A very entertaining evening!

Mixing dead pop singers with WW2 veterans is a bit crass IMO.

Winter Solstice 21/12/2022. Think it was 21:48. Start of earth's summer transit and more daylight each day.
I was trying to think of the name of this old zombie film and all I could remember were these people hiding in a loft. Turned out to be a vampire film called Thirty Days of Night set in this Alaskan town where they have 30 days of night and 30 days of daylight every year. I watched it again despite being done with any new vampire film for about 10 years.
