Guest guest Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 having lived in Germany briefly me and Zafar were both rooting for them.........unfortunately they seemed to confused especially once they were pitched against Italy.............it was a lost game and the wonderful uppers by ..............made all the difference and just imagine he was pariah in the adopted country.......... Finals were thus a mixture of awe and dismay in parts............but as they say that day matters so much........... so all the kudos to spain and yes Casillas........ regards aasawari91 sad the euro cup is over...........have enjoyed them every bit with 2 grown kids at home.......... ________________________________ To: " mgims " <mgims > Sent: Wednesday, 4 July 2012 7:50 PM Subject: Re: Water you saying? Â Interesting Amulya ! As far as Sunday it was a mixed bag of emotions. Luckily they were not versing against Portugal. I was kinda rooting for Italy as can't help rooting for the underdog. But at the end it was very heartwarming to see Espana take the cup as they deserved it so much. The final would have been a little more interesting if they were playing against Germany.

At your end this is leading to high temps whereas at our end its leading to water water everywhere with unseasonal low temps. If only we could get the clouds to go where they are needed. The drought situation here (yes, even the UK can have a drought but the ecperience cannot be compared to India where poeple die if there uis a drought whereas in the UK all that happens is you can't water the garden or wash your car!) has abated and we don't need the rain anymore especially not when the cricket and Wimbledon is being washed out. The Olympics are looking dicey as well now. > > Regards, > > Amulya > > PS.
