I seem to remember someone saying that the last time that England beat
Brazil in the WC was in the 1970's, so it may have been unnecessary to
correct yourself. But what do I know ? I hate football ...

I annoyed someone last week who was asking what the latest score was by
answering 417-7 (it has half-time in the England football game, and
lunch in the England cricket game).

No matter how hard you squirm, that means you were English for a short
time :)

Portsmouth is not a barn, it's a cesspit! (unfortunately I live there)
