Good Game

With apologies to the Guardian:

Torres had been off the pitch only a couple of minutes when his replacement, Fernando Llorente, aimed a header too close to Eduardo from six yards out, but the pressure on Eduardo's goal was growing. Within two minutes Andrés Iniesta flicked a wonderfully measured reverse pass into Xavi's path and this conjuror of a footballer applied the deftest of touches to back-heel the ball into Villa's path. It was the most incisive move of the match and, in an instant, Villa was through on goal for the first time. His first effort was saved but the rebound came back to him and was struck more forcibly, going over Eduardo and into the roof of the net.

Why is my slipper in the kitchen sink?

Hypothesis: it was used to kill a large bug.

Result: I was correct. It was used to squash "the largest cockroach
ever."

Last week we found what will surely become our family park. We have
since been three times, once for a picnic dinner. Life is shaping up
for us here at the southern edge of heaven.
