Today I shall mostly be looking like this


Bosnia take on Portugal for a place in the Euro 2012. You can watch it too - ITV4 at 18.45. Make sure you cheer for Bosnia though. You have no choice really. Bosnia have the rather fabulous Edin Dzeko who came to play once in a small Bosnian village that is recovering from the conflict (you may remember the post I wrote about it before - Footballs Other Side).

If you want some more background information, The Observer ran a piece about how Bosnia's footballers are succeeding in uniting the country where the politicians have failed. Have to say that I didn't totally agree with it and wrote a reply on my other blog here.

Hajmo Bosna!

  4. I just realised I didn't recognise you at all as I had a completely different idea of what you looked like in my head. Nice to see you though!

  6. Owen - I'm a married lady and all. I do love Dzeko though, such a sweetie. Really I am too old to be having these kinds of crushes..

    PS - the boys'll not be watching that last one. They don't need any encouragement at all!

    Young Mummy - one of my best I feel!

    Fiona - now I'm intrigued to know what you thought I looked like!

    BoyeByRed - I am the fount of all knowledge for watching Bosnian football. Not the greatest game though :-(

    Jazzy - not a patch on yours. Off to check out the Tuzla Daily Photo for a bit of homesickness moment now.

  10. Fiona's right - you don't look like I expected. But then, I too, am not sure what I expected!

    Now of course, I'm wondering what you think I look like...?!

    Good luck for Tuesday!

  11. Sport and a rise in real estate can always do what no politician can achieve...
