Australia are Through! You Little Beauty (pronounced beauuuuudy)

So Australia, after having had a dry spell for 32 years, make it into the World Cup (that's World Cup Football to you sporting philistines out there). I am unsure whether Australia have ever made it to the 2nd round. I will do some research on that and get back to you.

So, last night when Australia played Croatia, I became rather excited whilst watching the match. Instead of tell the tale of my excitement, I will refer to the blog my flatmate Nicole posted on her site last night. Rather accurate I feel.

GOAAAAAAAAALLLLLLL!

It has made the top ten funny things I have witnessed thus far in my life.

Needless to say......Preston was well impressed with the outcome of the match...
