I’ve got an iced coffee (decaf) and a bacon sandwich

My friend is coming round and she has the French flag on her nails. 😂
I feel like cheering for Spain to be a contrarian.

Keeping it classy 🙌

Which ‘ star ‘ will do a turn ? ..
I bet most of those watching it will disappear to make the tea or go to the toilet or turn it over !

Bloody love pimms

I'd bloody love a bacon sandwich right now. @IAmKerplunk

However, tonight's supper is a vegetarian tomato and mixed peppers pasta sauce. It needs a bit longer so will probably eat at half time.

Im jel

DH just made himself a baguette and chorizo sandwich- I guess he’s neutral 😂

Ahh TV is glitching.
Will have to watch on itvx boo hoo

Allez les bleus

The thing about both those anthems is:

They are both beautiful ❤️

Ignore .
Think I am on normal tv .

Who the fuck watches a sports fixture for anything other than the sport. Get a flipping grip

Come on Spain 🇪🇸

Spain KO.

I feel strangely nervous 🤣

Silence for the Emir of Qatar? Pffffffffffft.

Food is part of sport. Meat and potato pies anyone 😀

No silence for the Columbian player ?

I have a sherbert dib dab for later. Because I am 9 years old.

Half time is for a wee plus food and drink top up- things you don't do when the game is on.

What Colombian player?

I'm glad we aren't playing France tonight.

The one with the red lolly or the one with 2 sherberts and an edible stick?

I have had the explained this week

basically you can’t vote out the president and they have all grown into dreadful men if they didn’t start off that way - which they largely did

there’s only been 4!
