Ashes update: England almost there

In the absence of any real news this weekend so far that might affect the markets ( I have looked, trust me ) here’s a good excuse for an Ashes post.

England seem poised to win the First Test of The Ashes ( the ultimate competition between England and Australia for all of you wondering why I persist in referring to it ).

Until lunch it was a completely different scenario but by the end of the day we had, thankfully, got back on top.

Still to be won or lost by either side, with England needing 4 wickets, and Australia needing 137 to win with wonder boy Agar still at the crease, I’m not taking anything for granted.

All points to a wonderful final day’s play. Any of our wonderful Aussie readers reckon you can pull it off?

Be sure I will be reporting back tomorrow along with any financial/political news of note

Enjoy the rest of your weekend
