That's right Viggen, rub it in why don't you!!!!
I know how you feel, there's nothing like the excitement that a big tournament brings to the lucky countries that are participating. England normally goes football crazy, at this time of year every car, pub and building is usually sporting the flag of St George, the papers are full of expectation and people in general are usually in a buoyant mood, my wife even gets excited about footy, on match days the pubs are full to the rafters and usually a good day is had by all...............But not this year!!! Oh no, not a flag in sight, football fans across the country are depressed and there's not a sniff of football fever in the papers.
Enjoy it while it lasts Vig, because to be honest, I can't really see Austria getting past the group stages, can you? The Croats are one of the dark horses for the tournament and the Germans are well......The Germans! They always seem to pull it out of the bag when it matters.
The only good thing I have to look forward to is that at least I don't have to sit through another agonising penalty shoot out which will ultimately end in heartache, I can just sit back and enjoy the tournament for what it is........ A great footballing spectacle, with the best footballers in the world on show.
Armchair supporting is the way forward this year!

They all worked for me too, and beautiful they are too, I know what you mean about the blue lake, it certainly does look inviting.

Congratulations Wot, I'm sure it will be the first of many!

Nice one Sulla, well done mate!
Sounds like a dream contract, working less hours for more cash and the icing on the cake is it's on a bloody tropical island as well!!!
Have fun mate and try not to work too hard!
I'm sure your kids will cherish every moment of spending your hard earned cash, as I'm sure you will spending time with them.
Speak soon mate .

Pure comedy!!!Boris Johnson the most powerful man in the world!!
So, I take it you Brits don't figure Boris Johnson, then, for next Prez? I gather he must be quite a character.

Don't get me wrong I quite like the guy, he's certainly a character alright, infact yeah why not Boris for president!!
He's gotta be more fun than Bush! Probably talks more sense too!

Ahhh Caldrail, now your talking.
On Friday morning I was working at a Petrol station in Hyde, Manchester when a midnight blue Lamborghini Gallardo rolled in to fill up, now everyone who was at the garage stopped what they were doing and just stared at the car for a few minutes then looked at each other and nodded their heads in appreciation.
The car was out of this world and when I win the lottery next Saturday I'll be driving a Lamborghini Sunday morning!
Incidentally because the car was so beautiful nobody noticed who the driver was until the last minute, It was James Beattie, for those of you who don't know, he's a professional footballer now playing for Sheffield Utd.
After he'd drove away and everything had returned to normal I had a walk over to the pump and had a look at how much It had cost to fill up that dream car............

Will people ever learn? No. The burmese government didn't listen because it lives with its head in the sand and is too concerned with enforcing its rule.Apparently the Burmese leader / tyrant Than Shwe has promised

I've got a good idea Caldrail, Why don't you go out into Swindon and change all the arrows on the diversion signs in the wrong direction then get a pack of four beers, sit on a bench and watch the chaos commence.
It beats watching tele!

Nice one mate, glad to hear it went well.
If you enjoyed it, which it certainly sounds like you did, and you get pretty good at it then who knows....You might have the case for a career change on your hands!!!
It's got to be better than slogging your guts out day in day out!!

Damn sorry to that mate, I have two young daughters myself and the thought of not seeing them everyday is totally heart breaking, so I really feel for you .
Sorry but I don't have any advice that's going to cheer you up, I'm sure your kids know full well that this decision is out of your hands and that you love them with all your heart.
Keep your chin up mate.

Ha Ha now thats how you tackle a German!!!

Nice work mate! Maybe those dick heads will think twice before they try something like that again....... But then again probably not, low life's like that never learn do they?
Everyone I've ever spoken to who's been to NZ has always spoke very highly of the country and of the friendliness of the people.
I know what you mean about the nights though, I recently just finished a six week shift of nights and by the end of it I didn't know whether I was coming or going, it screws with everything, you don't sleep properly, eat properly, your social life goes out the window etc.

I quite like the guy, he certainly comes across a bit wacky and eccentric but don't be fooled, he's a very intelligent and well educated man.
The title of Mayor of London is not as important as it sounds, every decision made by the mayor has to be scrutinized and authorised by two authorities (the London Assembly and Greater London Authority) before the proposal can go ahead. so really the mayor is just the public face of a much bigger organisation.
Compared to Ken Livingston who personally I think is a slimy toad of a man, Boris will be a fresh of breath air. When asked what he could offer London if he became Mayor he said "Optimism, energy, dynamism and creative ideas!" That's exactly what it needs!
I've just purchased Boris' latest book called The Dream of Rome I've not got round to reading it yet but from flicking through it it seems like a witty and light hearted look at the history of Rome.

Please do Cornelius.

Sorry to hear that mate, I'm sure you'll show true British grit, knuckle down and get yourself back on board in no time.
Good luck!

There's always dick heads like that where ever you go mate. Although you didn't hit him there and then I bet if you had you'd have gone home a very happy man.

Insomnia
in Silentium est aureum
A blog by Silentium
Posted
Sorry to hear that Silentium, I've had a few cases of insomnia in the past, it has got to be one of the most annoying and frustrating things ever!
My remedy for insomnia was alcohol! After a few nights of hardly any sleep I went out and got blind steaming drunk and that night I slept like a baby, and the following day I was so hung over that all I wanted to do was sleep, which I did. I'm not saying Alcohol is the answer but it certainly worked for me, and I had a good time doing it as well!
Have you tried counting sheep? ( sorry bad taste )
Hope you get better.
