agreed. test matches get too much of a bad rap by people who don't watch cricket at all. Some test matches can be brilliant to watch - take the latest 2 between England and Pakistan for example.

Cricket > Rugby

resting my foot all weekend, load of sport watched. Shame the cricket ended within 3 days but now there's tennis on and Nadal is playing. What a life.

yeah a draw overall is decent for Pakistan and there's a lot of positives to take. Should give a lot of confidence to a young and inexperienced team.

think you guys were so confident in the first test that got you through it. surprised you batted first in this one!

@Devon Von Devon you been watching this 2nd test?

definitely not @Cannabis running it then.

yeah hopefully. i hate missing football Warmed up normally and no dodgy moves. Might have just overworked it and it was a new(ish) surface we played on too.

probably the way I'm standing. There's a wedge underneath my foot and in the boot to keep the foot raised a bit so probably that. Strained achilles tendon. I have to go back to hospital on Wednesday for x-rays and check-up to see if anything needs adjusting or if I still need the boot. I've only had the boot for a couple of hours and it's made a hell of a difference already.

worth it.

Decided to come to A&E Rang GP but they had no appointments so they suggested coming here.

cheers lads. After that post, I have been able to put slightly more pressure on it so it's not totally unbearable now. I can slowly move it more and it's a tad more flexible. Still feel it strain sharply sometimes though. Had to go in to the office for work so that was a bit testing when I was driving. Tempted just to stick with painkillers and heal naturally as opposed to going to doctors just yet given it's improved in the last few hours and I'm trying to keep it relatively active.

playing football yesterday, last game of the tournament, and i heard a 'pop' down the back of my leg - calf/achilles area. Tried a couple of steps to run it off, couldn't as the pain was unbearable. Like a shooting pain up the back of the calf. Not sure if it's something to do with the achilles or if it's just a calf strain. Put ice on it when I got home and then went to bed. Pain hasn't reduced overnight which is concerning. Can barely put pressure on it when I walk around. Anyone else ever had similar? If so, what worked for recovery?

*titties and then I'm in

Fuck sake mate that wasn't about you Stop reading so much in to a single-worded post. It's not meant to be anything. I just couldn't be arsed to make a longer post yesterday Don't go on about what you PMd me about either with a sarcastic response about being braver. You asked me if I was annoyed at you or if it was purely banter and I clarified it was the latter. Don't assume I have a problem with you just cos I don't answer with an essay. Hope this post is long enough for you though

i agree. better than accusing someone of trolling, calling someone misinformed dipshits, retards, rattling someone, baiting. A proper grown-up conversation

sorry

faith.

yeah I have. was nice.

How come not us? I presume asking price?

Yeah I don't eat beef as I'm Hindu. But I'm not a strict follower of the religion.

I used to like you @Dr. Gonzo but not after seeing that you think all Muslims are terrorists.
