Football and Books
Dec. 30th, 2012 08:03 pmSome late observations from the Euros:
Spain have turned into Brazil i.e. even when they're playing an odd formation, they're still worth a punt.
Italy have turned into Germany as in, how are that team, with only those players at their disposal doing so well.
Germany are now the Netherlands, underachieving given the players they've got
The Netherlands are now the old Spain, leaving everyone scratching their heads at how a team with some much talent can perform so poorly together as a team.
It is most perplexing.

While I was in Leicester just before Christmas I went into a lovely new second hand bookshop and bought a book (I had to restrain myself due to travelling).
( The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde )
( LibraryThing Suggestions: )
Well at least one of the suggestions is something I'm not going to read (The Amber Spyglass because I bounced off The Northern Lights).
The Unsuggestions are all religious books and I don't mean grand works of theology :)
