Is there anything better than a summer with a world cup in it? :cloud9:
Tough to think of one. For Spain Vs Portugal I will be in Oviedo prior to starting the Camino all the way to Santiago de Compostella. I can watch in a little Spanish bar, complete with old men playing dominoes, tapas & cheap sangria :cloud9:Quote:

The truth is I just dont watch that much football these days. And the England games are so depressing........
