There's some software here that you may like to look at:

Wow, thanks DA. I'll definitely have a look at that.

You're welcome, AC! Don't know how computer-savvy you have to be to use it, but I've had a look at the tutorial and it seems pretty straightforward to me. You'll need some cables of course, but they'll easily be available from Maplin or some such place.

Gower, Atherton and Bumble for me on Sky. Hilarious the other day when Williamson got one in a painful spot. Bumble berated by Atherton for his histrionics when hit by a ball from Thommo in the 70's. Bumble's indignant response about modern players dressed like Michelin men whilst he was armed with a cap and the Readers Digest down his pants instead of a thigh pad - then comparing Thommo to Broad or whoever it was. My wife and I were in hysterics.
That creased me up too. I think Lloyd said something like it would have been a pleasure to be hit in the "midriff" by a delivery from Broad. Lloyd more than makes up with his humour for any deficiencies he may have as a commentator.

Not a big fan of Bumble - ok in small doses. Athers and Hussain are like a couple of kids when around him as well, which is a pity, as they are two of the best commentators/pundits on Sky.

When it comes to cricket I watch on Sky with the volume down and listen to TMS on the radio. Sky's commentators for both football and cricket aren't that great and TMS has some good balance (usually) with the likes of Aggers, Boycott etc. I do agree over Blowers though, seems to blather on too much than is tolerable.

Hope commentary great Vic Marks makes an appearance this summer.

Am I the only one to appreciate Blowers?
I am sure I read someone else make a complimentary comment once.

Rich1uk likes Blowers. Always defends him. But Rich ain't around just now.

Unfortunately, Blowers has tried to take on the mantle of Johnners - and failed. I used to like Aggers but nowadays he seems to agree too much with the last person that spoke. Vic Marks reminds me a bit of Trevor Bailey - shrewd and insightful.-

Vic Marks has always been one of the best, if you catch him during a county game he is arguably even better than he is in the TMS box as he's free to really talk about the game and the county as opposed to having to deal with the wayward thoughts of the others.
Vaughan was nauseating today.

Vic is back. Excellent. And on good form.
I'm finding the internet and tv are both currently eight seconds behind a digital radio. So problem solved! Can't find my AM radio to check that.

In what way, as a matter of interest?

Huh, radio just overtook tv?
