Such a fine Haiku. I am enjoying your writing, especially the short, sharp pieces. Cheers, Brian

A lot of the resentment came from loosing the Falklands war to England this was payback for a humiliated nation He captured my imagination in Mexico 1986, without him Argentina would never had won, A genius with a few screws loose, most of them have, cheers David
