Recommended music to listen to when reading this page:
Soul
Limbo or Mambo
number 5 (opens in a new window)
|
 Women ... |
 ... men ... |
 ... and children line the streets |
 Freddie takes the applause ... |
 ... and a glass of champage ... |
 ... but how's the hangover? |
 Kevin Pietersen ... |
 ... the man with "six" appeal ... |
 ... and a strong voice |
 2005 was not just successful for England's men ... |
 ... but was also the year the women's team won |
 Everyone flocks to Trafalgar Square ... |
 ... for a ceremony in front of the National Gallery |
 England won the series 2-1 ... |
 ... with lots of 4s ... |
 ... and a few 6s |

(1)
And did those feet in ancient times Walk upon England's mountains green? And was the holy lamb of God On England's pleasant pastures seen? |
(2)
And did the countenance divine Shine forth upon those clouded hills? And was Jerusalem builded here Amongst those dark satanic mills? |
|
(3)
Bring me my bow of burning gold Bring me my arrows of desire Bring me my spear o clouds unfold Bring me my chariot of fire |
(4)
I shall not cease from mental fight Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand Til we have built Jerusalem In England's green and pleasant land |
 An opera singer joins in for a few rousing songs ... |
 ... including the hymn "Jerusalem" |
 Some fans dance in the fountains ... |
 ... others get up onto the stage |
 Hundreds of flags ... |
 ... fill the square |
 Congratulations to the English men's cricket team! |
 Congratulations also to the English women's cricket team! |
