Seeing as my tea is always cold in the damn things, I'm guessing it helps reduce heat transfer rather than stop it altogether.

Great start by my lads, people will start speaking about them being the strongest team in the tournament. They will of course go out meekly in the quarter finals :( Have people ever seen England and Spain in the same room together (at least since euro 96?)

That doesn't leave an awful lot does it?! About 3 episodes worth max. Still plan on trying that breakfast at some point. Revisiting series 2 at the moment and it is very good.

I mean in a football sense. I'm not convinced the English have much against the Spanish in a wider sense. It is ironic for an English/liverpool fan to pick another chronically underperforming team. I mean you could actually stand a chance of supporting a winner if you go for Germany or Italy. (but not France, not this time) As wholly impressive as Holland were last night, they'll still screw it all up.

Spain have, in my experience, traditionally been either disliked or abused by English fans (dirty spaniards etc) in the Euros/World Cups. I'm finding this sudden outpouring of support a bit odd frankly, but happy to enjoy it while it lasts.

Oppenheimer tries to use Linguistic research as an extra yardstick to help him with some of his theories, but steers well clear of using it for ANY dating at all, and generally only seeking larger patterns which may support his theories. He did write a book regarding human migration prior to the last ice-age, but this book deals with post ice-age movements and almost exclusively within Europe. Even those are heavily caveat laden, so in short he's a bit timid when it comes to even referring to language. However he did stretch his neck out a bit to say that he reckons that germanic influences were pretty noticeable in England hundreds of years prior to the Saxon 'invasions', due to a great deal of trading and cross cultural pollination across the north sea, our traditional focus and hub prior to the norman invasion. aaanyway, you're more than welcome to borrowage if you like.

how did you get it to appear here then? I'd give it another go. Change the subject of the thread perhaps

I went a couple of years ago. Of course it rained, it's effing wales, but really enjoyed the whole thing. I hate the idea of Glastonbury. If I wanted to stand around amongst several trillion irritating people who are genetically indisposed to walking more than 1 mile an hour, only to get ripped of by every vendor in the world, I'd hang around Oxford St. Greenman was just so manageable, and great atmosphere too.

And having read a very very interesting book about the spread of language, culture and genes in post second ice age Europe, it would seem likely that thought the French derive their name from the Frankish tribes who settled there between the 4th and 6th centuries, those tribes wouldn't have had a significant genetic impact on the area, they merely supplanted the roman ruling classes with their own as Roman rule effectively collapsed in northern France during the 5th century. Hmm, am I even boring myself?

Although of course the Franks actually came from North East Europe, the Allemani from Eastern Europe (very very very pre slav), so none of it makes a lot of sense. Dutch just comes from Deutsch, or German as their language "Dutch" or low german was the common factor of the peoples of the Netherlands (or low lands (think nether regions..ish)).

Huguenot made this one a while back which may help with visualisation http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&lr=lang_en&hl=en&msa=0&msid=115932926268779335103.000001124d9d7ab1b13a6&ll=51.460787,-0.074908&spn=0.025007,0.030683&source=embed

He was in bullet proof monk wasn't he? Strangely it's decided I'm: a different photo resulted in: which I'm much happier about, though it's almost as daft as the first choice.

People always said I looked like Paul off the Wonder Years. Actually, a quick look around, and he scrubs up quite well as a grown up Like to look like? Dunno, always thought Bruce Campbell was quite cool. Di Canio's quite dishy when he's not doing fascist salutes.

LOL!!!
