Stamps....impressions without SS gives Tamp

Thanks K ... although I was fairly certain of the answer, I do like to be able to fully justify, and missed that one!

Trust you enjoyed the match last night .. I thought it would be an open affair and it lived up to expectations. Now the nerves are taking hold as the final draws ever closer.

Good morning S.

I'm getting very twitchy about tonight and not as confident as I was during the week. If England are there or there about after 60 minutes I think we can pull it off but I fear SA may have a 15 point lead by then.
I'll be watching from behind the settee.

Ps Have you seen the marvellous front page of today's Independent?

Regards K

Not seen that K .. but there was a 28 page supplement in the Telegraph.

It's Headed England V South Africa

For a country obsessed by sport which has recently undergone a major political transformation, this evening's match represents an opportunity to forget troubles back home.
It's team does not reflect the ethnic make-up of the nation.
The sport is dominated by white,moneyed elite.
It's towns and cities are plagued by the curse of gangs and crime.
It's politicians are at a loss over how to deal with Robert Mugabe.
It's current political leader lives in the shadow of his famous predecessor who changed the perception of his country around the world.
The nation is one of the most racially diverse in the world, but integration remains a problem.
The song its fans love is a hymn to the historic struggle of the blackman.
For a night though this beleaguered people will leave all those cares behind and rely on their sporting heroes for consolation.

Come on England!

Many thanks K ... excellent .. that says it all ! (S)

Thanks from me, too, for this gem.

Great! Well done, K. I'd like to see a bit more comment and jocularity on this site. I think we tend to be too serious and dedicated.
