Cheer up mate. At least you got the Ashes back from us for once. The sun is even shining here in London right now.
Not for long you guys are going to win them back soon and for what I heard the real ashes.

I don't think the English cricket team is up to scratch.


PS: It's all so here too.

There must be something positive about England right now. Obviosuly it's not Engalnds 2-0 loss against Croatia last night which was truly a forgettable performance.

Dust carts eh? What did you work before?

Anyway, here in Vienna, it's almost impossible to get a job on the garbage patrol, it's a very well payed job, and to get in you almost have to marry a girl who's father is in. It's almost like the mafia or something.

Its practically the same here, some guys wait 5 years before becoming full time and fully employed on the dust's and a dust cart is a garbage truck / what ever else its caleed.
