Let The Hand-wringing, Wailing And Gnashing Of Teeth Begin...

Oh, tragedy!  A period of national mourning shall begin.  England have been knocked out of the World Cup.  Tim Henman didn't get past the second round of Wimbledon.  Oh, purleeease!!!  We get so obsessed in this tiny island about sports that we are no longer any good at.  Get over it.

Blå, Blå, Blå…

A brief round up of news in the Hantsbear household:-

1.   I am signed off sick again thanks to my Irritable Bear Bowel Syndrome.  Seems the ends have reversed roles... TMI...
2.   Work still sucketh mightily.
3.   A bizzare image of "Whistler's Mother" featuring [profile] rock_bear came into my head during a phone conversation this afternoon.  Please don't ask...
4.   The Nymphomaniac Swede's soccer team plays the real Sweden tonight.  If England loses, they have to play Germany in the next round and will probably be out of the competition.  Ha ha ha.  Lycka till, Sverige!  I'd paint myself blue and yellow, but I'd probably get lynched, the way this bloody country goes about the great god Soccer...

That is all.  Move along; nothing to see here...

Damn, Damn, Damn!!!

England are through to the next round, regardless of what happens against Sweden.  Curses!  No period of national mourning as the team of idiots led by the Swedish Nymphomaniac come home in disgace.  Of course, the thing that really annoys me is the way that some of the Tabloid newspapers insist on treating it like an extension of World War II...

Schadenfreude...

Damn.  England won their first match.  Still, there's hope they will get drummed out in the first round.  Am I the only person on the planet that would be highly amused by this?  Lycka till, Sverige!
While the match was on, I took refuge in a cinema in Fareham and went to see "The Wild" again.  What can I say; I'm a fool for wise-cracking London koalas with attitude...

The Beautiful Game...?

I wish to go into hiding for a month or so.  The sudden proliferation of St. George's Cross flags every where can only mean one thing; the Soccer World Cup has started.  And of course, everybody loves soccer.  It is their patriotic duty.

Yeah, right...

Curses!

England got through to the next round of Euro 2004. Now, my only hope of some decent schadenfreude relies on Tim Henman being knocked out of the first round of Wimbledon by an unknown!!

Uggghh...

The hoo-hah has started. St. George's crosses displayed everywhere, and wall to wall 24 hours a day eat sleep drink football. Because as we all know, EVERYBODY in the British Isles loves, nay adores, worships even the almighty Soccer.

Except me. And possibly a few others (I'm looking for moral support here, Nottingham...!) I am quite looking forward to the inevitable period of national mourning/demands for the scalps of Sven Goran Eriksson and David Beckham, when England drop ingloriously out of the tournament.

I can dream, can't I?
