Er, is there some sort of sporting match on tonight, then? Is it 'proper' football (with 15 players and an oval ball) or that silly 'association' stuff, which the hoi polloi play?

Anyway, now's a fine time to tell me what the weather's like in North Norfolk! I was thinking of driving up to Sheringham, Cromer or 'Hunny' today (from Suffolk) but decided against it because I wasn't too sure what the weather would be like up there in those 'foreign parts'.

Weather here in Sheringham Cromer dry sunny with light breeze. Tomorrow should be same with possible light showers in evening.
I'm (roughly) in the Stowmarket area, Helen
I've always been of the following opinion:

Football / Soccer - a gentleman's game, played by philandering thugs ...

Rugby - a thug's game, played by gentlemen!

The football supporters aren't much better either!
I think Lottie has at last achieved her ambition. I'm sure that she's always wanted to be a weather presenter ;-)

(I'll probably stay here in Suffolk tomorrow. The Bentwaters Air Show is on).
Hiya, Humpy07
I went to a school where soccer was frowned upon to such an extent that anyone who was found to have played for an organised team (in their own time, at weekends or during holidays) was subject to automatic expulsion!

Sounds like Wales!
It was actually Ipswich, Humpy07, who had quite a good football team at the time!
Chris, have you ever heard of the 'Welsh Knot'? Similar to your school story, in that any child found speaking Welsh in school during the 19th Century had a huge 'knot' of wood hung around their neck. At the end of the day, the person wearing it would get a lashing!
Yes, I heard of that, Humpy07. Have you ever noticed, in Wales, that big national companies are careful to ensure that all their signs are bilingual? (For example, all of the High Street banks have both 'banc' and 'bank' outside their buildings). But local shops, run by Welsh-speaking people, only ever have signs in English! (e.g. you'll often see 'butcher' but never 'chigyddio'). Weird!!!
