What does snow smell of?

Not heard much from the "have snow they will open" brigade after that...

Interesting piece of gear that one, first time I've seen it.

Oh yes, oh yes. Can you believe that just a short while back it was HOT and SWEATY.

Anyone see the match last night? MUFC won 5-2. How was Becks performance last night?

20 will be pushing it, gambarimasu.

Thanks danz, don't suppose you could give any more details.....? cheers

anyone know of any movies about snowboarding or skiing worth watching?

Wish it were every year, checkin out the shops with all their new shiny stuff on show I'm trying to save up right now.

Good timing. Well there you go. My team, Italy, just lost another (fairly) exciting game. As for your comments, Ocean..... No, you are the one who is wrong. But seeing as: - I don't give much of a crap about England anyway and can't believe I have been drawn into a discussion defending them! - From reading past mails on this Bulletin Boarrd, you do not seem to be able to accept anyone elses opinion on anything, and always without exception come back with pithy comments (how very English!) - this is boring ....then I think we should just agree to disagree

I am kinda new to Japan and Japanese, but can anyone tell me why Nihon seems to become Nippon when it comes to sports etc? Is there a time when Japan is Nihon and another time when it is Nippon? Hmmmmm?

Of course they wanted to score. 2-0 or 3-0 better than a tight 1-0? For sure. But a 1-1 result on a rebound, well that's something they need to avoid at all costs. One more thing, they are not interested in playing in a style that people watching "admire". There are no points for style. The points go to the team who wins, and thats what they did. Sure they're shakin in their boots that Ocean11 didn't "admire" their style. Anyway, I don't care about it too much. Just watch Italy today if you want to see some soccer you might "admire". Thanks for the !

I just couldn't cope with a hole for a toilet.

Scouser, how do you rate Italy?

Excellent. We have seen some excellent soccer games and some interesting results. We can only hope it continues like this.

Sourpuss. From your posts concerning soccer, it is obvious that your knowledge of the game is limited. I am not an England fan. (Italy is my team). I am a fan of the game and the game played well. And England indeed played an admirable game last night. The last 15 minutes was a constant Argentina attack, and England looked tired, but they also showed some great defending of their lead and - hey - England did not concede a goal. They defended, and did it very well. Owen came off to be replaced by Bridge in an attempt to DEFEND their lead, and WIN the game. And that is w
