Unfortunately, ...Carol, so nice of you to drop by! Unfortunately, I did not get to see any of the games. The weather here has been <i>spectacular</i>--Saturday was mid-70s and sunny, and today is low 80s and sunny. I'm sure Daniel is having a wonderful time!<br /><br />Jane, I play in a soccer club here with a lot of Brits. One large sweeper used to dress up as Santa Claus at our club Christmas dinner every year and hand out presents (purchased by the tots' parents in advance). One year a wee lad sat on his lap and asked, "Santa, where do you live?" He replied, "Why, the North Pole, of course." The lad followed up with, "Then why do you sound like you're from Yorkshire?"PJDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05028687955957107957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8014482.post-81919423940716438422010-04-25T15:10:58.842-07:002010-04-25T15:10:58.842-07:00Hi this is one of mums from sheffield wednesday, m...Hi this is one of mums from sheffield wednesday, my son is daniel in under 13.

I imagine the cloudless sky was a welcome change for the Sheffield crowd.<br /><br />Tell the kids not to worry - people from the South of England have trouble with Yorkshire accents too. Although from the sound of it, it was more a case of "two nations separated by a common language."<br /><br />Hey up lad. Put on t'kettle.
