This was around 10am, and I didn’t see one other pedestrian between his house and the station, and I was stopped by a Patrol Car and asked if I was OK, and had my car broken down - I said I thought it was a lovely day for a walk from the house to the station, and he intimated that this was not usual for Summit residents (it was/is a commuter town for reasonably well-of people who either worked in Wall Street or Big Pharma).

Indeed as we have Russia, America and Saudi Arabia to add to that, FIFA have the morals of a alley cat and that is insulting the alley cat.

Re: World Cup 2026

England squad has been announced. Good for Tommy Toucs picking a squad he thinks is fit for the tournament

https://news.sky.com/story/england-s...#liveblog-body

With moments it's there's but I reckon other teams will have those special moments that win the tournament

I have no expectations of England winning, I dont consider they are good enough.

Re: World Cup 2026

I'm afraid I won't be one of those trying to stay awake to watch the matches . . and then falling asleep . . waking up at 6am with a dead arm and drool down the front of my shirt
