Nightmare trip

Phew, what a long day yesterday was! Trip to see some potential suppliers in Devon. All very useful. The scenery and sense of space down there was brilliant, loved it.

Got into my hotel at nearly 9, and (having left a different hotel at 6:30, was desperate for a good nights sleep) was greeted by the news that I'd been upgraded. What a room! Teweksbury Park have done up a lot of rooms, and this was just great with an ENORMOUS bed! So sat back, ordered some room service and watched Scotland get beat by the Italians. Good overall perfromance from a bit of a makeshift team.

Put it this way, we lose 2-0 to the Italians(that's the world Champions btw - last time we played the current world champions (france) we got beat 6-0), everyone agrees we played well but were realistic about the likely outcome. Unlike some other neighbouring countries we could mention...

I mean, if your team isn't playing well, your not going to beat anyone 6-0. Gerrard showed his class with a typical driving performance (even allowing for him dropping out of the game for a bit). Don't think he would have played like that had Lampard was next to him.
