A bit of both!

I hate the World Cup.

But I'm supporting Aussie this time.

I'm watching the BRA-CRO game online atm. It's pretty good quality, not laggy at all, but the screen is a bit small.

Haha... famous last words... had a couple of hiccups in the picture just then.

Just had a text from my husband

" Germany v Poland, wasn't that the opening game in the '39 to '45 tournament?"

I don't know, Brazil weren't as good as the hype.

I wonder how many people will suddenly have to leave work early today to watch the match?! Going through Brixton this morning I'm sure there were more Trinidad and Tobago flags than English ones! Could be interesting depending on who wins ...
