I was rather supporting Belgium the other night as their Captain Hazard (really!) is a Chelsea player and it seems that their manager is English. The French were the better team and dutifully won. Last night the English team were beaten by the Croatians in what became a last minute exciting match, small reward for enduring hours of lacklustre play. This means that the Brexit lot are not playing France in the finals, which is a huge relief.
It is obvious that I know nothing about le foot but I used to enjoy watching it; young men with rippling thighs belting about, whats not to like? Nowadays I just see the terror in their eyes as they walk on, the fear of what might happen. It ain't fun anymore. Hope the excluded teams are getting a decent nights sleep now.
-Ric and Claer arrive today, many amusing events are planned including the Bastille commemorative celebrations :)
