Things:

- We beat England. WE FUCKING BEAT ENGLAND. (this is football I'm talking about, for you Yanks and other internationals - proper football, which I think you lot call soccer, and more importantly World Cup football, meaning even I'm interested in it.) This is a shock, to put it mildly, since the pre-match mood of *everyone* here was a jolly "we're going to get thrashed, but we're going to get thrashed by England! Excellent!"
- *pets paratti*
- the commentary on Earthshock is hysterical, covering such important topics as Peter Davison trying to see up Janet Fielding's skirt, confirmation that Five takes Tegan with him into dangerous situations instead of the more logical army types because it proves his heterosexuality, Janet Fielding giving commentary on all Doctor Who fashions, and a discussion on whether Matthew Waterhouse's dislike of episodes featuring caves is at all Freudian.
- Whether you lurk or not you should go and tell me stuff on my delurking post of incredible interest.

Wow! I didn't realise that! I think it's a bit weird that I get all my news through my f-list...

Oh gee thanks. Way to spoil the football result for me.

*pout*

Ack. Sorry, I assumed everyone who hadn't seen it by this time would be blanket-avoiding telly and LJ. Will cut-tag now.

Sniggertigiggles. I'm teasing silly. I'm not sure I even cared!

[doyle_sb4.livejournal.com]

Phew. But will leave the cut anyway in case of hurt feelings among England fans.

Your sudoku icon is the bestest icon ever, by the way.

Hee! Congrats!

Actually I had no idea the World Cup qualifiers were already going on [hides] Then I checked the internet, and holy shit, the next one is in 2006. Time flies fast, I tell ya.

WHOA!

OH! So put out I missed it! We don't get any good coverage over here in the States of the World Cup qualifiers (hey, only the entire world cares). What a coup-after last cups heartbreaking loss to Spain they deserved it!

*grin* Excellent! Champagne all round then? =)

wow. cool!

Aw! I'm pleased, even though I don't have any connections with Northern Ireland. England as a football team are strangely unlikeable. They sem to expect to win because of the money they earn or something. Yay for small teams! (Are there any City players on the squad?)

Also the Earthshock commentary sounds fantastic! Davison is such a love. But... there are Doctor Who fashions? In the 80s?

Thanks:)

I think I spoiled my entire friendslist with the boys response.

I need more scotch.

Earthshock. Five/Tegan Forever.

*not in joy*

You guys played well and we were UTTERLY SHIT. Christ. I am DEEPLY embarrassed by their performance. They need to get their act together - and sack Sven, get rid of Rooney, demote Beckham and crown Jamie Carragher the Lord and Master. Ahem.

If its any comfort, I kept running upstairs and telling thecount_ha that the world was ending. Well, NI scored, then won, so clearly its a sign of Armageddon.

And you're lucky you weren't up last night. The party went on a long long time! And endearing though they were, the fans can't sing for love nor money.

Also, I may still be in shock.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I couldn't believe it when all my family were round the telly with their tongues hanging out, going, "We're winnning! We're winning!"
