Not remotely interested, but hopefully, by Concorde.

Sorry, couldn't resist it.

Holding my breath, I delved into the pit of makems and drew this:

They play -

FORTUNA SITTARD V SUNDERLAND (Tuesday, August 8) Sittard is a small town situated in the south-east of the Netherlands in the Limburg provence, near Maastricht.
It is close to the Belgium and German borders with Holland, 75 miles east of Brussels and 33 miles north of Liege.

HEERENVEEN V SUNDERLAND (Saturday, August 12) Heerenveen is situated in the northern part of the Netherlands, 180 miles to the north of Sittard.
It is 80 miles north-east of Amsterdam and 120 miles north-east of Rotterdam. Groningen is to the east, near the border between the Netherlands and Germany.

In the Limburg province? Isn't that where they make the smelly cheese?

Can anyone tell me the Games/times of the Hamster - jam tournament?

We supposedly have it live here on PPV but the times they are shown seem very strange to be coming live from Holland.

Thank you

Heerenveen ?? That's who we bought Holland's top scorer JDT from wasn't it ? Ergo they obviously can't play football, so they should give the Mackems a good game. QED.

Anyone want to borrow my new Latin phrase book ?
