    If it was a normal week I'd have no problem to watch the game - in previous years we have had a big TV in the office and stopped to watch.
    Next week I am at a customer in Austria all week - I cant seen them being very sympathetic to me bunking off early ( @3pm their time ) to watch an England Wales game unfortunately
    even worse I am out with them Thursday evening so wont even be able to watch a catch up until I get back home Friday evening

    I'll just watch it on my work's computer while working away, not that bothered anyway tbh, can see it being a boring 0-0 with Wales.

    No....but one of the big screen monitors we have has been rigged up with an aerial connection so we can have the game on in the office.

    I used to love it when an England match was on during school time when I was a kid. All the teachers wanted to watch it so it was always put on the TV (one TV wheeled into the hall!)

    England will win 3-0. Too much hoopla around Gareth B......, sorry, I meant Wales.

    I'm on a course all week. It's a golfing week classed as adventurous training :) so we've sacked off Thursday afternoon to go to the pub, Friday's round is going to be fun!
