And you are too funny! We have an expression, which is difficult to translate, and says something along the lines of : "First kittens are to be thrown into water" ( not to be taken literally of course). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-football-world-cup-are-you-watching#post-169827 Sat, 12 Jun 2010 16:07:18 +0000 londonkiwi (now back in NZ) 169827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya - opps sorry - big football faux pas.

It's like that in the Netherlands too, Tanya. </p> <p>The semi final is in Cape Town!!! Final in JHB. At least - I think so. Sooooo, I'm on the South African side for this Word Cup - and not Dutch! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-football-world-cup-are-you-watching#post-169815 Sat, 12 Jun 2010 15:48:17 +0000 Tanya 169815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes!!! A huge fan here. My country is playing too, so I am very excited ( first game is tomorrow). At home we call soccer the most important non-essential thing in the world </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ot-football-world-cup-are-you-watching#post-169813 Sat, 12 Jun 2010 15:46:45 +0000 londonkiwi (now back in NZ) 169813@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In England it is impossible to escape the fact that the Football (or Soccer) World Cup started last night. </p> <p>While I generally prefer rugby, I do enjoy the odd game of football and especially the excitment and electric atmosphere that accompanies big games and with all the variety of ex-pats that live in London it isn't just the England games either. Plus, for the first time since 1982 New Zealand has a team!</p> <p>I have an idea of a challenge too - but just wondered if anyone else is watching? </p>
