Even relaxing is busy

We have probably run out of book-sized boxes. We still have a gazillion books to pack, but nothing to pack them in.

See the Monday morning panic creep up on us!

Shower and change of clothes now. Then off to friends to watch England v USA before going out for dinner.

On the subject of the World Cup (barely), I thought I'd share the contents of an email a colleague sent me at work yesterday. I think he cut and pasted it from a website somewhere, so it's at least third hand now, but still fun:

I've been finding it increasingly impossible to watch any football match commentated on by Peter Drury or Clive Tyldesly, so as a warm up for the World-Cup, I watched an online stream with Mexican commentators.

Maybe it's because I only understood one word in five, but I was able to enjoy the game a lot more than when I'm being shouted at by Peter Drury. The two commentators were consistently amazed by 'el gigante' Crouch 'dos metros!' - and summed up Theo Walcott perfectly 'rapidissimo, ma pasa mal el bola'

And there you have it. I'm off to clean up, cool down and get changed.
