Helloooo, not long now til home time, the good news is you;ll be pleased to know the weather men are talking about a mini heatwave today - the bad news is its probably only going to last 10 mins! The bit about a jumper in my earlier message should now be upgraded to a kagool and wellies...... I've mud upto my knees. (no funny comments about being short) Just in case the proper football doesnot make it over there, we're rubbish outside of europe, but if its any consolation, two other blue teams both went out of the cup last night too......
tara, H

I had all but given up hope, then I remembered my wonderful relatives from Wales were in the stands rooting for my home town team, the Seattle Seahawks! With time clicking off the clock, Josh Brown kicks it through from 50 yards out for the win!

The streak of luck Cat and John bring to the home team continues!! Seattle Seahawks: 13 Dallas Cowboys: 10
