They postponed it from last Friday because of the weather forecast and moved it to yesterday (Monday). Friday was a nice sunny day with a bit of cloud and breeze. Yesterday started the same, then it started raining, then I decide to go home, then it lashed down. More wall knocking down today, skip coming tomorrow. Being a happy soul like yourself I predicted England having 2 defeats and a draw, wish I'd put a bet on it now. We just never look like scoring. I'll keep looking out for you on Skype but the times you are blogging are not conducive to my sleep patterns.
