I'm in, with some trademark Dutch courage
I find it interesting that a study has found Dutch courage boosts foreign language skills.

Dutch courage boosts language skills​

Research suggests that a swift drink may help improve your foreign language skills.​


A swift drink may help improve your foreign language skills, research suggests.
The study looked at whether Dutch courage would boost people's ability to speak a second language - or whether it would turn their words into Double Dutch.
It looked at 50 native German speakers who were studying at the University of Maastricht in the Netherlands and had recently picked up the local language.

The group were given either an alcoholic or non-alcoholic drink and then held a conversation in their non-native language.
Researchers found those who were slightly intoxicated had better pronunciation than their sober colleagues.

So, the moral of the story is I suppose is win. lose or draw drink up before you pronounce the names of the Sri Lankan cricket team.

Reminds me of the guy giving a lecture on the evils of alcohol. On his desk are 2 glasses - one containing water, and the other whiskey. He drops a live worm into each glass: the worm in the water is swimming around having a good time, while the worm in the whiskey shrivels up and dies. The man looks at his audience and says, "So who can tell me - what's the moral of the story?"

A comedian at the back of the room says, "If you're having trouble with worms, drink whiskey."

This saddens me as it reminds me how my Grandfather drowned in a vat of Whiskey. He worked in a distillery in Ireland and fell in one day and it took 4 hours to drown...




























...he had to get out 3 times to go to the loo.
 
With the WC quarters kicking off in the wee hours have you ever wanted to know how the work out injury time at Qatar 2022.

 
Well I'm out

We are having Moroccan Lamb for dinner tonight so I'm not sure if that's a sign.

Well Morocco will roast Portugal.

Not to mention how he bravely fought off the four co-workers that dived in to save him...
 
Carna England.

Do it for His Majesty, our King

Given you are old enough to remember the 1945 Grand Final bloodbath and still salty about that, I'll let that slide:)
 
My preference is for tweets that are specifically designed to annoy British people but got to give it to the Poms for their Wikipedia edits.

Who woulda thought Harrt Kane would choke at such an important moment and ruin Englands chances and embarrass them with the whole world watching at such an important time in such a big game.
