“Great couple of days down in London working out what to do in the future. Very exciting stuff.” tweets Swann “no offers for swimming trunk modelling yet though which is a trifle mystifying”  I think they’d seen the beach shots with Jim.  Best to stick to woollies

Royal Couple

Enjoyed The Ashes – Just Not Cricket today with cricketing royalty Swann and Jim.  Especially enjoyed the call for beer for a rather grumpy Jim at the start of the show. …

Going up in smoke

I see first issue of Ashes memorabilia is out – will have to take up smoking to collect these beauties!

Extras

“James Anderson is looking more and more like Karl Pilkington. … This probably makes Graeme Swann Ricky Gervais.” tweets  Dan Brigham of the Cricketer mag.  And Stuart Broad as Stephen Marchant?

 

Swannderful Life

Lord’s Ground are doing their Wordy Wednesday on cricket films….

 

Toff and Oiks

“Most amazing cricket fact that I’ve uncovered today … @timbresnan went to Eton! #true #posherthanhesounds” tweets ace snapper Philip Brown.  And here’s the proof – Timothy posing with some oiks…

Unchained melody

“Reading festival tonight with @JimmyAnderson9 details are sketchy as to how long our slot is. …not sure how long two men can play the tambourine whilst humming ….”  I see them as the Robson and Jerome de nos jours

Brooding over the Test loss (but rejoicing at Le Wiggins win) – aha!  could this be the solution?

Pleased to see Swann and Jimmy A taking time out in sweltering Sri Lanka to publicise the new ECB section – fashion!

Pyjamas

“I must be getting old, I’m seriously contemplating pyjama bottoms tonight rather than your classic ‘tackle out’ attire” tweets Swann.  An ECB marketing opportunity surely…
