Title: Victory parade Post by: larwood on Tuesday, September 6, 2005, 11:32:50 The Ecb have"provisionally booked" Trafalgar square for next tuesday,so the England team can have a parade through london.It seems a tad excessive to me[unless we win],what if we lose at the oval?,it would be a massive anti-climax.

Hope it is a victory parade though, and not a day for commiserations. Title: Victory parade Post by: land_of_bo on Tuesday, September 6, 2005, 11:40:27 That's probably why it's "provisionally booked", so if we lose they can cancel it...

Title: Victory parade Post by: Titch on Tuesday, September 6, 2005, 13:19:37 Well you could go back to a life of unemployment quite easily. Whether you should of course is another question!
I was reading that they are comparing potentially winning the ashes to winning the world cup in '66! What a load of bollocks! Dont get me wrong winning the ashes is going to be fucking brilliant and i'll revel in it but comparing it to the world cup :-))( Title: Victory parade Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Tuesday, September 6, 2005, 13:30:12 i think winning the ashes will be a bigger achievement than the rugby boys in 2003. they were expected to win the cricket team wasnt. but the 66 world cup no way! that was better!
Title: Victory parade Post by: larwood on Wednesday, September 14, 2005, 08:07:27 I went yesterday :beers: :D .It was fucking fantastic at trafalgar square,seeing both of the england teams and cheering them on,freddie was fucked :) and k.p was reveling in the adulation.We were singing about gary pratt and channel four :) ,we felt really privileged to be there thanking the lads.
It was a great day,but now its all over :( ,until late october anyway,so i'm back to worring about Swindon now,which at the moment seems a depressing thought because there is a lot to worry about :( .

Title: Victory parade Post by: larwood on Thursday, September 15, 2005, 07:45:24 I saw in the Times yesterday, that Barmy army members in convict land are having an open top bus parade through sydney :) .
Plus the royal mail have said they are going to release some england stamps up to the value of 68 pence,why 68 pence?Because thats the cost of sending a letter down under! :) Title: Victory parade Post by: Spud on Thursday, September 15, 2005, 14:18:06 Quote from: "larwood" I saw in the Times yesterday, that Barmy army members in convict land are having an open top bus parade through sydney :) .
