You're joking!

Should have gone for the earlier kick off. It's not like this storm came out of nowhere. It was forecast days ago.

It's raining heavily and a lower temperature than it was in south Cheshire today.

I normally wake up in the night anyway. Setting my alarm for 3.

So reflecting on the last match, thoughts are that players tend to underestimate Haaland. He's going to score goals.

Mexico and Spain are the only countries that haven't had a goal scored against them. So says the commentators.

Norway defended well. Brazil did disappoint.

Wtaf?! Some of us need sleep!

Yes!

Anyone else got to be up for work in the morning and debating whether to stay up or sleep? Might risk a nap now it’s at 2am!

He is on 7, same as Messi and Mbappe

Luckily I have a day off tomorrow but I'm fading now. I'm an early bird and this is well past my bedtime. So I think I'll turn in now and get up later (maybe!)

Really interested to know how people can sleep on demand !

Yes. Had a nap between 7 and 7.30. Might fit in an hour and a half before kick off now.

Yeah. They spout a LOT of pointless shit! That game was before most of tonight's players were born/started school! 🤣🤣🤣

might have a nap now play has been deleted.

Me too, I can't do it.

Just had my shower and was ready to roll but think I am just going to bed now! Am so glad I am not sitting in a pub . Catch up later everyone,I second @bizzey ,I cannot sleep on demand🤦‍♀️but shall try!

Still awake, just about.

My dessert blinis recipe.

Welsh cakes with good blackcurrant jam and a dollop of yoghurt on top. Sprinkle with sugar if you desire.

The diets gone to F**k !! 😅

Still here, in the pub, have had a red bull 🐂

Literally as I posted my comment about how busy is it ..my DS has just sent me a photo of him and mates in a pub .
It is heaving !!
