@2 And where do you keep your crystal balls? The money is on Germany vs Spain. Although there are plenty who see England ousting Spain.

Well we all hope England gets as far as poss.,
As some things are worth waiting for [in England’s case]

But Germany has a very good chance,
As does Brazil,
But as long as it goes of peacefully that’s what counts, is it not..

I've noticed a miraculous transformation in brassie's post's since she started.......I agree they are one of the same. A sad and pathetic one that TTT is. The multiple personalities, obscure and strange POV's. He needs permission and money to get out of Argentina and see the world he is so much afraid of. However, apparently observing other cultures is repulsive to his closed little mind.
