h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Hello there!!
I notice you are a rugby fan, will you be watching on sat?

Greetings !!!!

Hello there to you too



Yes, I am crazy over rugby. Have you watched the recent matches too?

Yep its all been pretty good, so glad we are in the final again - all been well we can beat them this time after the poor showing earlier!!

Has to be said thou I think one of the best matches I've seen was Wales v Fiji, now that was close!!

Yes, The Fijians played sprited rugby.

I noticed you dislike two things very close to me cricket and mosquitoes (latter not by choice )

I think you guys will win hands down !!!!

Cricket I think is a backlash from being forced to watch it on TV by my parents although I have been to watch it and its a lot better being there!!

Mosquitoes are spawn of the devil, there is no other description that comes close!!
I always seem to be eaten alive a the first hint of summer, unfortunately I do love sitting beer gardens on a summers evening and that does seem to be their favourite place to congregate!!

So which teams do you support?

Please congratulate your parents for thier fine choice in sports ... cricket is acquired !!!

May be you will like cricket when you are older.

Mosquitoes are indeed evil and should be wiped out

I remember such summer evenings.

I supported The All Blacks and in the finals will be supporting England.

Has to be said I have a soft spot for the All Blacks and badgered my parents to bring me a shirt back when they went to NZ.
I am starting to get pretty excited about the final now, am off to the pub since it is at a more civilised time (for me) this year!

I tend to follow rugby league locally since I live in Hull and we have a huge rugby rivalry between our 2 local teams

Ofcourse !!!
Please have a drink for me !!!



Well, I live about 8,ooo miles away in Colombo so I cannot join you !!!

Why is the pub " a more civilised time (for me) this year! " , are you on a year off from Uni ?

Sorry was trying to message you and finish of some work, so probably sounded all garbled!!

The world cup final 4 years ago was on at about 7am in the morning here so at least this year it's a bit more acceptable to be in the pub watching it!!

Unfortunately I'm not a student any more and hold down a job which is kinda interesting and pays the bills!!

Greetings Madame !!!

It's quite alright, and thanks for clarifying.

What a weekend this time around !!!!

RU World Cup + F1 in Brazil

My apologies for not responding earlier. I went for Badminton and thereafter for a "Club Night" kids and all. Got back awfully late.

I will be watching both matches live on satellite.

So, if we do not chat before the WC - My Best Wishes for a England victory !!!! hope you have lots and lots of

Hello there!!

It should be an awesome sporting weekend (please please please let us win!! )

England to win, Lewis Hamilton to win and my home team Hull City to win (not very likely but I can hope)

I will be in the pub tomorow night hopefully singing and dancing till the early hours in celebration but will be there comiserating if we lose - I'm looking forward to a really good match!!

Hope you have a weekend!!

This weekend England will create History !!!!

Hope you will remember to send me a high "spirited" victory "speech" !!!

~shakes with excitement~

I'm starting to get really twitchy about it now, even managed to drag my bloke out to watch it and he's not a rugby fan in the slightest (I will convert him!!)

What do you think chances are of getting

Good idea - someone should get to work on that !!!!

Will take you on for 5 rounds of Girls v Boys and will be off to the club - Friday night you know young lady - back to watch the France v Argentina match starting at 00.30hrs (saturday)Colombo time. (we are 5.30hrs ahead of GMT)

lol
Whereabouts is Columbo (apologies for my lack of geography!)
I'm leaving work in about an hour then off for a cheeky couple to warm up for tomorrow!!

Colombo is the capital of Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylon) about 8,500 kms from England in the Indian Ocean.

England cricket team just finished the first leg of a tour here - disappointingly (for me) we lost the ODI series - what's the secret with England sports these days???? - may be support of die hard fans like your goodself.

You obviously didn't count our football team in that statement lol

Looks pretty certain that we are not in the European Championship next year after the disaster against russia on wednesday!!

Don't worry they will come good !!! with your support ofcourse

Hmmmm
I'm not believing it but it would be good!!
I am clock watching badly now till I can leave work!!
plus I worked through my lunch so I'm sooooooo hungry!!

I'm off to the Young lady will catch up soon !!!!
