tale of two world cups


tis was not long days past that i was sitting in a pub with me mates n bro watching the footie world cup, and somehow while it doesn't too long back, as i sat watching the cricket world cup matches last sunday... it somehow feels weirdly similar yet hugely different... not making much sense am i?

hehe .. well for starters never had much chance to follow cricket on tv as the local satelite tv provider (read : ASS-TRO) charged and still continue to charge unworldly amounts to subscribe to major events. hence, lack of coverage mostly equaled losing touch with the sport. but here, with most chances to watch it (on tv when i get the odd chance) on broadband over streaming websites (since i don't own a tv) i've re-kindled my shool-days connection with it! woohoo...

there have been some awesome matches so far... the Irish giving the English proper beating, the English drawing the Indians with a thrilling game, New Zealand upsetting the Pakistanis... will there be more? i hope so!!

on another note, hey it's St Patrick's Day celebration and Parade in London this weekend! woohoo... prob got chance to get some pics of some cool party-scene or even floats (dare i hope) at the least some drunk tourists probably competing with the locals over who can be more Irish! :D hopefully this weeks sunny weather holds!
