    Who is we Wildt?  I'm not sure how to read your name - is it Wild Tee, or Vildt... and therefore you mean Belgium?  lol

    Of course, it might be Vildt and you're an England supporter - difficult to know lol

    I don't. It's the flair thing. You watch some teams and they look like a choreographed dance troupe and the ball ends up in the net regularly. It's always been that way - and these are often the teams that reach finals. I've not seen such flair and ability in the England team for a long time. I do see it in a couple of other teams at this tournament - and those are the ones I can see contesting the final.

    Of course, having said that, I haven't watched an England game for years (I gave up) before this tournament. I think 06 was the last time. I even used to openly show support for them, once upon a time....

    Denmark! :)

    And Wildt is my surname... and lol, now you made me google it:

    "The history of the Wildt family name begins in the German province of Bavaria. Wildt is a nickname
    surname, a class of German names derived from eke-names, or added
    names, that described people by a personal characteristic or other
    attribute. Wildt is a name for a person who was extremely wild and
    passionate. The surname Wildt is derived from the German word wild,
    which means the same in English."

    Well if you look back on this thread I predicted Germany wouldn't do well and that France would win the World cup. So far I'm right..

    Ah, ok, so you're still in with a shout!

    Yeah every time i saw your name i just assumed it was "Vildt" but it could have been/meant anything of course.

    It was, from 2000-2005. Longest I've owned one bike, though the one I have now is looking likely to break that record. I have a pic of it (and my previous one) as my desktop background...



    Unfortunately I don't get to ride it as much as I'd like - I've only done 1,400 miles since I bought it (the day I took that photo). It's cos it's a damn heavy thing to push around when I get it out and put it away. Best bike I've had - easily. The previous best bike was the Tiger in the other picture.
