Ouch Bubbles!! Where's the love?

My Dad's a Brit, does that perhaps make me acceptable?  There I was thinking that if Brasil runs out of options for me I might go to England!
I quite like Brits...the non-t**sers of course, but yes, many I like.

What's your beef with us Aussies?    (not counting those at Walkabout bars! I couldn't stand them either)

And I'd love to say differently, but I don't think you risk getting too pxssed off by Australia winning.  Failing that I'd be going for Brasil.  Definitely would prefer England over Germany or Argentina.

Originally posted by tomjo If I'm right in saying so Bubbles is a huge cricket fan and I think he is referring to the age old cricket feud between the UK and Aus. I think the relationship between the UK and Aus is as healthy and strong as ever - I spent some time working in Australia and found it super place with grate people, kind of like living amongst your cousins - well that's what I felt. If you do go to the UK I hope you are welcome as warmly as I in your home country! we could do with a few more Aussies over there to cheer up the gray sky's of London.    Good luck tomorrow! Go kick some German ass

Thanks Tomjo   I'll drink to all of that.
You will hear me yelling when we kick some German ass tomorrow :-)
Good luck to England too for Friday.  Today was just a blip!

Glad you felt so welcome in Aus, as it should be!
Definitely time for me to get to the UK in the not-too-distant future. Well overdue already.

And Bubbles, was Tomjo right?  The Ashes?  We'd be lost without a bit of rivalry too though wouldn't we? 

Originally posted by LIZARD KING I hope Argentina wins, and I am a Brasilian. I don't like the team of Brasil this year......so I hope is Argentina, just to piss off the Brits.

The Argies have no chance, but maybe if they start snorting coke like their estime coach, they might have a chance, but I doubt it.

What he means PTIC is that only the "white speaking english" he roots for .

Same in Kenya.  White Brits that were born in Kenya are British passport carriers as well as Kenyans.

But the Blacks and other minorities born in Kenya, the non whites, are not welcome to have a british passport.

That is how they operate.

The french do the same--kill and rob Africa and then when french speaking africans want to move to France, they are not welcome.

This is the hypocrisy and disgust of these european conquistadores....same occurs with Portugal and Spain---as for me, the sooner they disappear from the Globe the better we all are.  I am glad they are in an economic chaos.

You're not entirely correct Lizard King .... Everybody is of course welcome at French Foreign Legion ...
