Shane on you!
2 years ago, at the start of May
Maybe my dislike of tabloids stems from an unconscious desire to write the headlines. I mean how brilliant is the News of the World’s SHANE ON YOU?! For those not in the know, it appears Shane Warne has invited the tabloid lions to feast upon him. Again! This time, all in detailed graphic footage which is as disturbing as it is hilarious. Here’s the report from one of NOTW’s infamous journos (this had me doubled over, wetting myself)
LEGENDARY bowler Shane Warne was on red-hot form (FORM!) the night he took two for dirty sex (TWO FOR DIRTY SEX!) in a three-hour spell at the crease (AT THE CREASE! I’ll stop now).
And the randy Aussie cricket ace had model pals Emma Kearney and Coralie Eichholtz in a spin as he topped their wonderful figures again and again in a memorable innings at Emma’s flat last Thursday.
Shameless Shane, 36, even got his two wicked maidens to play with a giant inflatable middle stump as he showed just why his marriage to long-suffering wife Simone has been reduced to Ashes.
All the gossip and more at their site.
Ashes poster on eBay for charity
3 years ago, at the start of November
Throughout the Ashes, Darryl from The Ashes blog took some brilliant photos of him and some mates reenacting events of the summer. Not just vague happenings, but actual wickets! It was a great laugh, and the Beeb and others caught on.
Anyway, Darryl’s asked me to let you know that he’s made a poster of his photos - an 8 inch by 12 inch print covering all five Tests of the 2005 Ashes series, including:
- Lord’s - “Adam Gilchrist celebrates the wicket of Freddie Flintoff - caught Gilchrist, bowled Warne for 3.”
- Edgbaston - “Ricky Ponting trudges back to the pavilion after being dismissed for a duck.”
- Old Trafford - “Michael Vaughan salutes the crowd after scoring a century at Old Trafford.”
- Trent Bridge - “With a beer and a cigarette in one hand, and a ball in the other, Shane Warne very nearly won the game for Australia.”
- The Oval - “Under dark and gloomy skies, Andrew Strauss is caught by Simon Katich close to the wicket. This photo is a re-enactment of the bad light.”
It’s at eBay and available for bidding, so go there now and bid away! It’s for a good cause, too - all proceeds go to World Vision and their Pakistan earthquake appeal.
I think you’ll agree - a bloody fine effort from Darryl, so let’s start the bidding.
