The English get what they deserve

We watched the USA-Ghana game at a pub along the Thames River last night. And the entire place was rooting for Ghana. Funny though, there were few black folk in the house. I told Cindy afterwards I predicted Germany would beat them today 4-0. Got close.

But, we did not see the game. Took a road trip (aka train) to the Windsor Castle today and toured it during the futbol game. Great way to spend the afternoon. Lots of great royal history. Grand castle of course.

One of the things that was most memorable...the current Queen Elizabeth and her sister Margaret when they were little girls, there were photos of them with their pet dog...a Corgi! His name was Dookie! As in a Duke. (Maybe explains why students at Duke are called what they are.) Anyway, I'm sure this explains why Norman (and Corey before him) appear to be so regal.

I know you folks will not believe this...but it is sooooooooo hot here. And it may only be in the 80's (uggggh!), but with no A/C in a lot of these places, i.e., buses, tubes, trains, pubs, restaurants, etc. that more than makes up for the outside temp.

Oh well. Bitch, bitch, bitch.

We're having fun.

Later.
