I assume the fact that Emile Heskey has just joined your league is not a coincidence.
I'm an England supporter so when I watch the football there is a lot of swearing at the TV, so much in fact that the kids actually get scared when I watch it and the missus had to take the kids upstairs during the Euros this year.

Heskey is scoring so many goals in Australia there is now an option to watch games with a single camera that follows him and him alone.
This'll cheer you up, I have a story about Emile William Ivanhoe Heskey too. It's not particularly interesting but it does involve a nightclub and a Norwegian girl.

We were in a dark little club in Leicester called Pu Na Na's back when Emile played for them.
We were out with the half Norwegian girl from the flat upstairs and her flat mates.
Meretta (or something like that) was on the dance floor when we noticed frantic hand gestures. A closer look showed that Emile was dancing close behind her, very close, very very close indeed.
So someone went over and extricated her.
When asked what the problem was she said "He's really ugly", so we laughed and said that's Emile Heskey, England footballer.
She turned round and headed straight back for the dance floor. "Where you going?" we asked.
"If he plays for England I'm getting back in there" she replied.
But she'd missed her chance.
Remarkably in all the time I saw him on the dance floor he never once needed to be help off the floor by a physio.

Well, I have had this old chap for about two years now (and it was not state of the art when I bought it, I just needed a laptop). But today I'll get my new laptop. Finally.
