Apparently once he said he supported Scotland and

anyone that played England :)


It was a joke and he never brought a Paraguay shirt

And he is truly delighted to be where he is - you can see it clear as day, if you look hard enough.

I've always liked him, yes he comes across as a bit grouchy sometimes, but I warm to that sort of straightforward unpretentiousness much more than I do to someone like Federer, with his flowing locks and absurd monogrammed costumes. And he's a fantastic player to watch, a "battler" who seems to chase down every ball.


I have no problem with him representing Britain - although I guess the flag-bearer perhaps seems a little incongruous.

    • Nothing to do with the topic of this thread, but I have to say, I think it is quite untrue that people don't make human contact in cities. Just locally, there are street parties, road WhatsApp groups, one street I know near here hires a coach and everyone in the street goes to the seaside every year! There are lots of neighbourhood groups on Facebook, where people look out for each other and help each other. In my experience people chat to strangers on public transport, in shops, waiting in queues etc. To the best of my knowledge the forum does not need donations to keep it going. It contains paid ads, which hopefully helps Joe,  the very excellent admin,  to keep it up and running. And as for a house being broken into, that could happen anywhere. I knew a village in Devon where a whole row of houses was burgled one night in the eighties.
    • We went to Chern Thai for lunch on Saturday, as we have done quite often, and they were closed, with no sign of life. The sign in the window still says Saturday 12-3, and there was no indication that they would be closed. Can anybody shed any light? We went to Chilli and Garlic on Zenoria Street instead. Their falafel salad bowl is amazing (and amazing value!) but we had been looking forward to a Pad Thai and a pint of Singha! ETA: I am reviving this thread because it is/was  specifically about Chern Thai's opening times! 
    • Wow, they didn't hang around after getting their licence approved.
