Title: Ye we're in the final!!!
Post by: Dawie on July 06, 2010, 04:58:14 pm

Not a great soccer fan, but had to watch tonight and would lie if I said I did not care who won. We won and are now in the final this weekend depending on who wins tomorrow against Spain or Germany. Maybe just maybe the World Cup will come to the Netherlands. Everybody is going crazy around here honking horns, blowing vuvezela's.

Hi Jimbo also thought you guys should have gone through. As I said don't know the rules that well, just watched last night to see what would happen. Heard more people about NZ not going throug. Must say still prefer to watch rugby. But being dutch my patrisme does surface in cases like these.

Hi David,
I see in the Dutch newspaper that they are asking for longer openings hours on Sunday. I bet that by a win the people will go grazy. I hope to see the parade going on the water in Amsterdam.

Thanks you guys. Hope to see the parade in Amsterdam just like you do Mike. Let's see what they make of Spain. They gave quite a performance last night, they have a darn good defence and are very fast.
Have a nice day.

Hi sp. Typically dutch skinning a bear before you have shot it. It put a smile on my face. We'll see what they do on Sunday as Spain has a very strong defensive team. Thanks for your support.

Hi Bow, To be fair the Spaniards played better, but it was a bit of a dissapointing game I found. Well life is getting back to normal here, no more noise of vuvezelas all day long and no more orange decorations all over, kind of sstrange after a month of soccer do the sudden quiet.
