Ha, Jan - so true. You do see some awfully sour and sorrowful faces... But no matter what, the U.K. produces some of the best football hooligans there ever could be. : )

It could apply to many sports ... I was actually thinking of football but at the end of the day winning isn't the be all and end all and I hate to see bad losers:-( hugs Jan

I love doing a string of footles as a story but will also accept five plus un linked footles each with a clever title:-) I am sure you will come up with something fabulous for me:-) hugs Jan xx
