Just curious...if anyone isn't watching England play on Sunday are you planning to do something else instead?

I couldn't give a flying flipadoodle about it so thinking film and a take away. DH will be out at the pub watching it so have the remote and Deliveroo app to myself.

Long bath may feature in my plans too.
Not sure if the cinema will be showing films at that time- our nearest cinema is showing the match on the big screen 🤯

I’ll probably do whatever I usually end up doing on a Sunday night

I usually go to the cinema but maybe it won’t be open. If it’s not I’ll go for a long walk or run. Or have a long bath. Or watch paint dry 😉

At 8pm I'm sure plenty of parents will be embroiled in children's bedtimes.

I will be 'enjoying' a child's music performance (5-8yo's on violins & cellos, so probably more painful then football), then taking DS to a birthday party. Both organised long before the England match was a liklihood.

I'm sure plenty of people will be not watching the game.

On Wednesday I went for a run. It was lovely and peaceful out. Not sure about tomorrow. I might dip in and out, especially if the kids stay up.

BogRollBOGOF · 13/07/2024 08:00

I'm aware that there's a big match.
Don't know what time.
My policy of not watching has served England well so far so do I attempt to witness history, watch it and jinx it, or quietly ignore to improve their odds Grin

I have a history of triggering devestating penalty shootouts when I show too much interest.
