Paul got it right!

The octopus was awesome. The Dutch let themselves down significantly. Sadly a controversial goal won it but Holland got what they deserved for the way they approached the game which was appalling. Mr Webb did not come out of the game very well, but he was fighting a losing battle with such cynical tactics to face. Really he should have sent at least one Dutch player off, but probably didn't want to spoil the game. Don't worry Howard, the teams did that. Very shoddy end to a shoddy tournament.

I found this so I am going out with a bang with the official song from France 1998. That's more like it!

I forgot to say it has been horribly windy today - gale force for most of the time. It's calmed down now.
