I am going to check out the England vs USA match, even though the only player I have heard of is Wayne Rooney.

It's a plastic blowing horn that's very loud (up to 120db) and which is used by thousands of south africans in the stadiums. They produce a constant, montone noise which reminds me a bit of a bee swarm and that basically drowns everything else.

Sunday evening (20.30 CET), against Australia.


Why men throw their lives away attacking an armed Witcher... I'll never know. Something wrong with my face?

Thought the South Africans looked the business and were unlucky with the draw.
France/Uruguay - Meh! Nearly fell asleep.
South Korea deserved their win over a very mediocre Greece.
So far Argentina are deserving their 1 nil lead with 15 mins to go.

I agree that these bloody horns are annoying and should be banned. They're such a distraction!

Does any body want a four year old that won't stop singing jingle bells?

C'mon England!!!!


That Farrow bloke you executed today, are you sure he's dead?
Well I chopped his head off, that usually does the trick.
Yes, don't get clever with me Baldrick. I just thought you might have lopped off a leg or something by mistake.
No, the thing I chopped off had a nose.

Lovely Nando's ad up there. Great place to eat if you like underdone chicken. Generally about medium rare.

"Most foreigners think South Africa is full of bribery and corruption."

Misconceptions?

Having lived there for years, I'd like to point out that foreigners would in fact be laboring under a misconception if they were only to think that S.A. is full of bribery and corruption.

They should be every bit as certain of it as they are that fire is hot and ice is cold. To only think it, without absolute certainty, would be to fall short of the mark of which S.A. is most certainly worthy. Aish! We undah pressure!

Cheers!

Rick... yep

Green! Unbelievable! Credit to the USA, though, they've had a good first half, had the majority of possession etc.

Looking forward to the second half!

Here we go. . . .
