	I'll be here escaping it. But then I'm here all day and half the night working anyway. Because of the time lag, things will be on at later hours here in the west. But then I'm here at later hours anyhow ... I have to say that of all TV sports (we are inundated with hockey, the Cdn and US football leagues, basketball, baseball ...), soccer is by far the least offensive, except for baseball. Tennis is almost as boring as golf, and after not too much of the plonk plonk noise I want to kick the television in.

	you really should bump up that thread....football explained through the use of condiments - classic ;) I'm not sure whether BC's motives for watching the World Cup are purely sporting or pure ;)

	Will I disappear when the World Cup Starts? The weekend before last my mum mentioned about having to put up with the football being on all over summer. It took me several minutes to remember that the world cup is on this year. Does that answer your question? ;-)

	I heard someone today say that it will finish (for England) on Friday ... take it that's their first match then? Hopefully OH will spend many a happy hour snoozing during the important games and huffing and puffing during the unimportant ones. And as for the tennis! Don't get me started! All that grunting - and that's just from the women players. Yeuk! Jill

	Squirrel, I think it's on from June 11 for about a month! I only know as the council I work for has a special 'management' policy for dealing with the potential requests for time off! I'm furious as it's more leniant that the 'policy' created during the snow!!! I expect there will be quite a few managers 'working' from home for the next month.

	Dear All Hello Hope you are all okay. Er well, yes sort of! I will try to plan around the matches. Some person has to be the voice of calm and reason in our house! The flags are being put up tomorrow. The wall chart is prepared and a few extra food goodies will be bought. As it only comes around every 4 years, I say enjoy if you can! But the TV channels could offer some decent programmes as an alternative. They used to during previous world cups. Take care all Very best wishes xx
