Everybody's talkin'* - The Beautiful South

One thing beautiful about the beautiful game is that it transcends almost everything! No matter how old you are, whether you're a guy or a girl, which country you come from, what language you speak etc., people everywhere are talking about the world cup!

I remember occasions when i had to go to the bar alone to watch a match or sit at the common area in a backpacker's place or have a meal in a restaurant screening the game - suddenly, everyone around you is a fren!

Why, someone even wanted to be my fren on FB just becuz i'm a footie fan!!!!

Even google is into the World Cup:-



What are we gonna talk about when the World Cup ends? ;-)

As one German fan puts it - "What are we going to do now that the football is over for us?"

Well, we'll just have to wait for another 4 years. At least in the meantime, the English Premier League is gonna resume soon!
