You can't help but see some coverage of the football at the moment but I have to say that this did make me smile and what a great example to young football fans watching around the world.

Guess what musical the following lyrics come from? We still believe, we still believe It's coming home, It's coming home, it's coming Football's coming home It's coming home, It's coming home, it's coming Football's coming home Tears for heroes dressed in grey No plans for final day Stay in bed,drift away It could have been all Songs in the street It was nearly complete It was nearly so sweet And now I'm singing three lions on a shirt Jules Rimet still gleaming Oklahoma? Oh so close too, it was actually The H Kane and I.

Brazilian manager going to lose them the world cup here persisting with Jesus upfront and not Firminho. It's like Serginho all over again

It's like Serginho all over again Never thought I'd ever see Serginho mentioned on a theatreboard ! He was once referred to as a Brontosaurus compared to his other 1982 Brazilian team mates - Zico, Socreates, Eder, Falcao, Junior. The bald goalkeeper Waldir Peres wasn't the best also in what was otherwise a great team.

The roads have been lovely and empty today. I went shopping in Bicester on the way home and it was like a Sunday morning.
As I reached home I heard a huge cheer from a pub. I didn't think there were that many Swedes around here. Oh, hang on...

Decided to go shopping for the duration of the match hoping the football would mean fewer crowds/less chaos than usual at Westfield....it didn't.

Football doesn't trump theatre as far as I'm concerned anyway. It virtually never does for me but this feels like it could be a national event and there's a bit of me that wants to experience that as a different type of communal event. Hubby was unsure about Octoroon anyway and the NT's return policy makes it an easy decision (already rebooked for later in the run). I'm Scottish so it's not such a big deal to me as it is to him.

Really sad that yesterday's win has led to some awful examples of thuggish louts 'celebrating' which have been shared on social media today.

Nice day off watching both matches, also watching the highlights right now. Handy it be so hot, make me want to have a nice pub and too hot to sit in a theatre. So with Saturday dedicated to football, I decided to break a habit and attend a show today (Sunday). Which was School of Rock which is a great show and pleased to report it was sold out.

The Park was air conned and bearable but we ducked out of The Globe, sent back the tix. If you get stuck in the late afternoon sun there, it can be lethal.

I had a meal in a pub this evening. Very quiet. Checked the football score at 19:10 out of idle curiosity and saw England had already scored one goal. Got home two hours later, checked again, and England have still only scored one goal. Not what I expected.
I guess I'll find out the final result by the noise from next door.

I assume from your silence that the next door neighbours were so quiet that you fell asleep.

Who picked that miserable bunch of moaning minnies in the ITV studio? Did any of them ever get to a World Cup semi final?
Instead of making it sound like England were the worst team ever, why not praise them for all they've done? You'd never have had that from Gary Lineker.
