I live in a house smaller than that CMoS. Does your cupboard have a garden attached to it. If David Seaman is still going to be England's No 1 goalkeeper I will be switching my allegiance to Wales. Never have liked Seaman. Then again James is no better. Thankfully never watched the game.

Your goalie was all at sea man. So now you know how it feels to draw 2-2 against a bunch of no hopers. But at home!

CMoS - I'm looking for a 4 bedroomed house - what offers will you consider for the cupboard?

Yep - agree with you all - must sort out Dutch gigs. I just drift on thinking it's weeks away with plenty of time - and then wonder why all the flights are booked. I'll sort it at the weekend hopefully.

Like the baggies scoring a goal Cliff! You haven't been much this season have you? Actually I think they've done okay so far. Some very dodgy decisions going against them which must even themselves out soon. Looking forward to Saturday - local derby. I have a lot of B'ham City fans as friends. Wonder if they will be around Saturday evening.

A man went into a pet shop to complain about the hamster he had bought. 'It was useless' he said. 'It didn't do any tricks and died after two days. So I decided to make jam from it but the jam tasted really foul! So I threw the jam onto the rubbish dump in the back garden. Next day, the rubbish dump was covered in tulips.' 'Didn't you know' said the shop assistant 'that you always get tulips from hamster jam?' Ok I was bored!!

Are you trying to give Lee an excuse for not going to Amsterdam, Alex? Only 7 weeks to go so not long to get booked. How big a venue is the Paradiso, Julius? Is it one big hall or does it have smaller halls inside?

Here is a link to the English version of the ticket site for Amsterdam

Seaman? Never trust a man with long hair. Or a moustache. Remember the truly brilliant Muriel Gray saying 'men with moustaches might aswell write 'I'm a d****head' on their top lip instead'. So Seaman loses on both counts.

Hope no-one on here has long hair or a moustache Jackie! At least we don't anyway:) Actually if this years failed resolution is to go by I've probably a better chance of growing a moustache than growing my hair. Didn't JON have one once? No, never a good idea but that's just my personal opinion (apologies to anyone on here who I've just insulted!).

Did you just make that one up Alex?

Donin, the difference is England will qualify and at the end of the day thats all that matters.

Doesn't a man's definition of long differ considerably to a woman's though? I won't bother with the Seaman jokes, I wouldn't want to make anyone cross!! Definite hand ball for the Beckham goal though.

alex do you have donalds new phone if you have can you e mail it to me thanks .why why oh why do people take football so serious it seems people will pay any a mount to have some one on there team when people who need money are left to do the best to make ends meet the worlds gone mad .god i must have my serious head on .tssy

Julius - I might have found a race on the Sunday at Aalsmeer which I believe is only about 10 mile south of Amsterdam. My knowledge of Dutch is restricted to the few sentences in the phrase book section of my travel guide to Amsterdam. Can you have a quick look at the site. There are other races detailed but I don't know where the other places listed are in relation to Amsterdam. Many Thanks.

George are you staying in the Park? I'm in the presidential suite so just run up and down the stairs with vodka and coke for me, hurry because i don't want the ice melting!! :)
