David
Glad to learn that you are feeling OK. Of course I love football as I was brought up on a diet of Best Charlton and Law.My uncle played for New York Cosmos in the 50's a pioneer in taking football/soccer to the New World.
Tomorrow England take on Germany in Berlin.It might be worth you switching on and watching the lads (hopefully) defeat the ol' enemy.
Take care David. As Basil Fawlty said once "Was it Painful? Really painful?"
