    I've called Twickenham and told them.

    They say they're going to abandon the match at half time.

    excellent

    give them my thanks. tell them i want compensation for the horrors of watching random z-list tv celebrities sing "swing lo sweet chariot" when an england squad player presented an award at the iTV soap awards 2 months after we won the union world cup.

    "haunting" as you would say
