Damn those Vuvuzelas, eh! It’s been a funny World Cup so far, very colourful, ‘early doors’ but not hugely eventful. Oh, er, except for that howler. I would say, after that 1-1 draw with the US, “same old England”, but in the past England had really good goalkeepers (except in penalty shoot-outs, ahem).

To celebrate the England – USA match, I made a nice English trifle. Kind of appropriate really, ‘cos they played like puddings. Early doors yet though! And I have been trying to sketch during matches (see Uruguay vs France below) – not easy!


Geez, I just watched the Uruguay v S Africa came tonight and immediately recognized Forlan in your drawing. I must be watching too much soccer. Thank you to your goalie for giving us a tie.
There’s no such thing as too much soccer! (I’m up at 4:30 every day these days…) I still can’t believe what happened with the England goalie. However, things change quickly, and for all we know he may end up being a penalty-saving hero against Germany or someone…
(pretty unlikely though!)
