Well following on from the above post...I have returned from the dentist and am still in one piece. But as my dentist is Portuguese and a football fan to boot, I had to handle the situation with the utmost delicacy this morning. And seeing as I was his first customer/victim of the day...I was in a vulnerable position and no mistake..."why did not Ronaldo do the first penalty" said he, and I agreed wholeheartedly showing reams of enthusiasm... especially as he had a 12" pneumatic drill in his hand at the time spitting fire and brimstone!
I told him to cheer up as he could have been an Ireland fan. This seemed to lighten the load as nothing could be worse in footballing terms.
I'm just kidding, he's a good guy really...
