ttwjr32:
thats an interesting observation Willy. are the universities in england controled by the
government or are they completely seperate entities? just curious

Willy The Londoner:
Ted like here in China they like to think that they are seperate entities.  But in reality that is far from the truth.

In England they are all public schools.  Except for public schools which are ALL private!  Great being English isn't it?

Takes us back to cricket ' batsman is out when he is in etc etc'

Philip:
No, Willy,
the most important cricketing expression is this classic piece of commentary:
The batsman's Holding, the bowler's Willy ;D

Willy The Londoner:
Ahh yes. I forgot that classic from Brian Johnson.

For the sake on Non Englishman.  Michael Holding was the batsman at the time Graham Willy was bowling.  Brian Johnson was the English commentator

It is like the other classic never to be repeated.  Well not tis year at least  In the dying seconds of the 1966 world cup final England were beating Germany.   The commentator was saying 'People are on the pitch. They think it is all over' in that split second we scored another goal and without a pause in breath he added' It is now"

There are so many great cricket classic's and that was one of them ,but I always liked the Australian fan who called  to England spinner Phil Tufnell.  "Oy Tuffers, can I borrow your brain. I'm building an idiot." ...
