Watched
the football, England v… oh God, I swear I'm not
doing this for comedy effect but I have really forgotten
who they were playing. As I feel I keep having to justify,
I'm not that into football but like to clap along during
the world cup and that other tournament where Gazza
always cries. Anyway, as usual England where pretty
rubbish, well, not rubbish, that's not fair as they
did win in the end but it has to be said they don't
make it easier for themselves. Of course the only way
they could make it easier is by playing better and I'm
afraid that seems to be beyond their capabilities. Somebody
on the radio was saying a Germany v England final is
feasible due to the way the matches have been drawn;
lots of excitable waffling about it being a rematch
after 40yrs or something. The only thing they don't
mention is the feasibility study kind of goes out the
window when you realise the England team are just a
bit poo. But, a win is a win (as my friend used to say
on his Hook a Duck stall a Hull Fair) and David Beckham
scored the winning goal and there were many shots of
his wife (the one that used to be in The Spice Girls
and has teeth that point backwards like a snake) as
she jumped about and hugged her son in such a fashion
that it looked as though her spindly arms might break.
The player called Joe Cole seems to be shrinking, getting
progressively shorter in each game, is it the stress
or do they keep leaving him out in the rain at night?
The ref looked very greasy and suspicious (he speaks
very highly of me apparently).
