    what time does the Georgia game kick off ? I'm more interested in watching that !! Watch the Ukriaine game on Saturday as the England game was sophorific boring.

    I can't be bothered, TBH. If I'm home in time, I might catch the second half. I watched the Scotland match on Saturday. Much more passion on and off the pitch.

    As much as I love my football, I just can't get excited about the English National Team. Never been to see an England match and have no inclination to do so in the future. It's Charlton for me. Period.

    Im ok, Insurance Brokers are expected to be out at 4pm.

    First half New Moon in Leadenhall Market, back to the office for 10 mins and then back in the pub for the second half.

    My position is much the same Valley.

    I knew I could get away with either the football or the rugby on saturday but definitely not both as far as Mrs Len was concerned.

    There was only one choice and the lovely autumn weather expunged any doubts.

    I took her out for the afternoon so gained some credit points and arrived home just nicely in time for the rugby.
