Predictions

Mine are

Italy 1 Spain 1 (Spain winning 2-1 after extra time)

England 2 Iceland 1

[JackSnakes]

Iceland have beaten Turkey, the Czech Republic, and the Netherlands (home and away!) to get to the finals, and haven't lost a game yet. I'm hopeful they will put England out.
Italy and Spain... I think I'll be rooting for Italy. Can't really choose between them as I like them both, but off to Italy in August so I'll go for them

I'm hoping for a Spain and an England win . Got small stakes on them both to go all the way. England e/w, Spain just to win.

Where are you heading to in Italy ?

Lucky you, sounds brilliant. Have a great time.
My missus and I are heading to Liverpool for a couple of days then three nights in a country house hotel in Lancashire. After that the icing on the cake, two nights in Blackpool reliving our youth. Have to holiday in the uk just now for personal reasons.
Should be good but not quite Rome and Florence

Had many happy holidays in Blackpool - although the individual memories I can pick out aren't always the best... (very) many happy(?) hours stuck on Shap Fell on the A6 with a trillion caravans in front of us all going the same way... the car stinking of mum's eggy pieces... the caravan site in Morecombe right across the road from a pig farm... the grey furry drains with the strange smell round the shower block... My dad persuading me to eat whelks... picking the little buggers out with a pin...
When we lived in Nottingham we came here for our holidays. We liked it so much we moved here...



Went to Italy last year and had one day in Rome - which is why we're going back. If I'm honest it costs me no more than it does for a fortnight here. The accommodation is very much cheaper there - two weeks in August in the village where I live would cost £1800 - and even adding the flights in it is considerably cheaper then staying here...

Restaurant recommendation, check out Porto di Ripetta near Piazza del Popolo if you're around there.

Wee family run place that was absolutely magic.

Having said that, aw the food there was amazing. There's also a bar on the Vatican side of the river called Mr Brown, where you can get blootered on cheap as phuck cocktails.

Aye the fitba


Think Italy will edge it 1-0 tho I've got Spain in the sweep.
England 3-0 winners.

[Buc]

1-0 Iceland.

Spain 2-1

[ZombieSkelper]

Nigels 1-1 after 6 minutes, this could be a decent game.
