Oh, to be in England

 

Oh, to be in England.......wrote Robert Browning. But he was thinking of April while I'm thinking about tomorrow - Sunday, July 11th when the sporting worlds collide in London. We will have the Wimbledon men's final by day and the European Soccer Championship in the evening. So you can have your strawberries and clotted cream early and maybe a few pints at night. Expect Royalty to attend both events.

The soccer game between England & Italy starts at 3:00PM (EDT) or 8:00PM London time. Try to tune in early to hear their anthems as they hail "our" Queen. Expect 60,000 maskless fans packing Wembley Stadium with England having home field advantage.

To fill out the tri-fecta we have Richard Branson, a Londoner, rocketing into space tomorrow as Virgin Galactia. Though he may be in space I suspect he will hear the roar of the crowd from Wembley Stadium.

Should be a busy weekend. tjs
