    I know I'll probably get slated for this but is anyone else going to watch the cricket world cup? I sometimes go and watch Scotland play, it's a great way to spend a sunny summers afternoon and a huge * up. Scotland's best bowler is Paul "the Hoff" Hoffman. He signed my t-shirt while he was standing on the boundary against Pakistan and i was leathered. I have to say, i think i hassled "the Hoff".

    I have a sneaky feeling India might win the world cup, does anyone else care?
