Oh to be in Blighty, now the Ashes are home
Must admit to raising a glass and shedding a tear when Michael Vaughan raised the small urn in the air earlier this evening to signify that the Ashes are home once again.
Doviko surprised me with a chilled bottle of Krug at the opportune moment. What a gem he can be.
Perhaps there are a few, especially around these parts, who may not realise that England have regained the Ashes in what has been the most wonderful series of Test cricket in history. The Ashes urn, of course, never actually leave England. Its all rather symbolic. And English. But wonderful stuff, anyway.
Oh to have been at The Oval today.
