Poll Results: England To Win World Cup
I'm not quite sure why, but even after two horrible performances England have overtaken Brazil as favourites to win the World CUp in the poll I've been running.

I’ve been using WordPress for one week now and I’m really glad that I moved as it has exceeded my expectations. I think what WordPress does well is provide a platform that supports novice users, but also offers the flexibility to allow more advanced users to personalise their experience.
Although out of the box it [...]
My Ten Favourite World Cup Goals
I watched about 20 mins of the Poland Vs Ecuador game to convince myself that if England wins its group, they’ll have no problems beating either of them, as both teams looked quite poor. Even the novelty of watching in HD wasn’t enough to keep me going (I don’t know if it’s my imagination but [...]
