That was the most exciting, eventful, incident-packed series since 2005 - absolutely brilliant. The fact that series result went right down to the wire was just the icing on the cake. If only the rain had let up at Old Trafford - ah well. If you watched/listened to this series and were unmoved then I guess sport is just not for you.

And to bring it slightly back on topic, I find TMS the perfect soundtrack for coding.

    hippo, looks like we're in for another exciting Ashes, with Australia out Bazball-ing England at their own game in the opener.

    Though common in the 1880s, that's the only Ashes test I can remember to finish inside two days.

      Last one was 104 years ago - 1921, at Trent Bridge. (You might be a bit too young to recall it ;-)
