Well ... I hate to point out the obvious on the NP thread, but if you were on the A303 from (say, Exeter) to Salisbury ... you kind of went right past it and it's RIGHT IN YOUR FACE!! at the side of the road.

She means the NF pastures . ( edit, i think, on re read not sure!)

Oh, I've no idea where that is.

I do know somebody from London asked me if I were near there as he thought that's where England ended.... and so I must be there. And when I looked it up, he was closer to it than me!

I did have an online friend once, from Surrey. He passed his driving test and had his mates in his car and decided he'd randomly drive to where I am ... well, he'd never been out on roads before, managed to turn left just outside Surrey somewhere and ended up somewhere on the South Coast of England instead.

The fool....

I thought it was all very promising, and good to see the French sympathiser wheezy's prediction turning out to be wrong!

I am confused, there's a team in yellow playing a team that should be in yellow and all the fans are in yellow. I've seen a shot where they cut to the crowd after a goal and I had no idea which of the yellows had scored. It's not helped either when there's a Swede called Ibrahimovic or Ukranians that look Swedish.

That really only leaves talking about you relationship for this thread chewy and jibing you for not asking her to marry you and for blaming her for passport issues.

Yes, that and solar panels.

There's some football rule about if both teams are in the same colours, one of them is duty bound to change to their backup colours.

Ha ha - I was thinking the same thing when Ukraine scored their second goal and they showed a wide shot of the crowd, one section of yellow clad fans going mental and the block next to them completely motionless!

I watched the England game in the gym, nearly 2.5 hours on the bike and I am now so shattered I cannot move.
