what A Difference Two Years Makes!!!
There have been a lot of big changes in my life over the last two years, but nothing compares to what has happened to our international football team. It is not yet two years since Croatia beat England at Wembley to eliminate us from Euro 2008, yet tonight Fabio Capello's men destroyed the same team 5-1 at the same venue, to reach World Cup 2010 with a 100% qualifying record.Wally with a brolly: Hapless McClaren in November 2007I hated England ...

Sure Deodrant Experiment
I would like to offer my recent findings to the Huntingdon Animal Testing Lab. By doing this I will hopefully save the eyesight of a monkey or a guinea pig.I can confirm from my experiment carried this morning that flicking Sure Men Roll On deodorant in to the eyeball it causes temporary blindness, followed by the swelling and severe irritation of the eyelid. Whilst it can still be used as an anti perspirant, please do not use Sure deodorant ...
