Blow those vuvuzelas!

If ever we needed a little magic the time is now.  The South Africa vs France game has kicked off even as I write this and this is our last chance to make it through to the next round.

We know we were lucky to even play in the first round (purely as the hosts of the World Cup) but after the first game against Mexico, we dared to dream a little.  And South Africans are great dreamers.  The second game against Uruguay somewhat battered those hopes and today's game depends on the prayers and longing of a nation.

Make a noise and wave the flag ...

We'll try and get the help from any source we can ...

We're good at singing and dancing too, so that must count ...

We'll even blow our vuvuzelas whilst having our pictures taken ...

In fact, we'll do pretty much anything to give a good account of ourselves this afternoon.

Above all else, we've loved being able to take part in the opening rounds of this thrilling and colourful event and even if we get no further, the excitement, the thrilling spectacle and non stop partying continues.

Late newsflash :

WE JUST SCORED A GOAL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
