  1. Rural Vicar James says:

    As usual, those who do the photocopying draw the short straw – the lowest of the low! I don’t think that I will be able to cheer for North Korea but it does mean that I will take note of the results which I might not have done…

    (James from Photocopying)

  2. Paul from IT says:

    Argentina! Brings back memories of notable clashes with England in the past.

  3. Sarah says:

    James from photocopying, I’m in there with you, the lowest of the low, shows just how much we are(n’t) appreciated!
    Sarah – Develpment Facilitator

  4. chris clark says:

    Fix! How come you get Brazil?

    I will now watch England lose on penalties to Germany knowing there is a massive compensation :-)

  5. Eliza says:

    James I have a copy of the Lord’s Prayer in Korean should you want it.

    Paul from IT, I too have Argentina, do you know anyone who is selling Argentine flags for my car! Seriously, I have always thought it would be fun to drive around with the flag of the country against whom England are playing. With the windows up and and the doors locked of course.

    Eliza from the sewing room

  6. Sir Geoff Boycott says:

    Brazil? My grandmother could bowl that lot out. Have they got any decent spinners? That’s just daft that is. The South African seamers’ll eat them for breakfast.

    Aggers reckons I’m confusing cricket with football, but I know he’s just trying to wind me up again.

  7. Dave says:

    Chris – For information: I am the ‘Dave’ listed under Cameroon rather than the Brazil one.

    If anyone isn’t happy about the Brasil selction submit it to Justin from Complaints (as outlined in the procedures handbook you are all using to prop up your desks).

  8. Paul from Printing says:

    South Africa! Come on the home team! Yay! (Blows on one of those long plastic trumpet things.)

  9. Rural Vicar James says:

    Sarah (Development Facilitator) Thanks for the support!

    Eliza (from the Sewing Room) So do I – but haven’t had to try to speak Korean before and not sure about the pronunciation. Also, don’t think that the Lord’s Prayer would be well received in North Korea!

    한국어 [편집]

    하늘에 계신 우리 아버지,

    아버지의 이름이 거룩히 빛나시며

    아버지의 나라가 오시며

    아버지의 뜻이 하늘에서와 같이 땅에서도 이루어지소서.

    오늘 저희에게 일용할 양식을 주시고

    저희에게 잘못한 이를 저희가 용서하오니

    저희 죄를 용서하시고

    저희를 유혹에 빠지지 않게 하시고

    악에서 구하소서.

    아멘.[1]
    라틴어 [편집]

  10. Sir Geoff Boycott says:

    Cracking idea Eliza. Then after displaying the US flag on Saturday you could symbolically dip it in oil at a well known fuel outlet.

  11. hopeeternal says:

    Thank you Dave – I will now be able to watch the football with marginally more interest than previously!
    Greetings to Farli, Russ & Sue – my co-South Korea-supporters. Are online prayer meetings in order, I wonder? Think we might need it with our draw!
    hopeeternal
    (I think the tea & sympathy might be needed too!)

  12. Stephanie says:

    Bummer! too late to enter. Might as well for Australia then.

    Steph
    Gold Coast (QLD, Australia)

  13. Sue from IT says:

    Sir Geoff (& Eliza)
    You forgot to continue…..and set fire to it.
    Brings back fond memories of Vietnam War
    protests outside the US Embassy.

    But you, young Dave, way before your time.

  14. Sir Geoff Boycott says:

    Hopeeternal – if you are praying for South Korea, you’ll have to do it in proper South Korean style: all night.

  15. Anne, Art Department says:

    Go Cameroon! I actually know somebody who is there.

  16. Fiona says:

    Hmmm…. Denmark… at least we get Danish pastries to go with the tea and sympathy that will be required ere long….

  17. Fiona says:

    … unless, of course, Ian (Dept for World Domination) knows something that I don’t … Are Danish pastries suitable fodder for gloating?
