Runrig With Special Guest Mike Peters - The Rest of Day Eight

Game 22 - Slovenia v USA

VSlovenia will be represented by: Roy hn, Juan Peron, Toscanini, dacron

USA will be represented by: Dien Bien Phu falls, "Rock Around the Clock"

Roy Hn was apparently the commander of the South Korean forces in the Korean war, I think. Or it's just another made up name that makes the line scan, to be honest I'm past caring, I bloody hate this song now. Dien Bien Phu was (shock horror gasp) another French military defeat, this time in Vietnam before the Yanks got there and made it all so much better. 1-0

Juan Peron, as any fule kno, wrote a song about his wife for Julie Covington to warble, Rock Around the Clock is infinitely better obviously. 1-1

Toscanini and Dacron don't get to play, one's an Italian restaurant in Peterborough and one is a thermoplastic polymer with the molecular formula C10H8O4)n.

Game 22 - Draw

And so onto the big one. *why has the writing gone dead small here?*

Game 23 - England v Algeria


VEngland will be represented by: Einstein, James Dean, Brooklyn's got a winning team

Algeria will be represented by: Davy Crockett, Peter Pan, Elvis Presley, Disneyland

Einstein was dead clever and knew lots of stuff, Davy Crockett is only famous for having three ears, a left ear, a right ear and a wild front ear. 1-0

James Dean was not just a careless driver, he also did films and that. Peter Pan is some sort of mythical child abductor. 2-0

Brooklyn's got a winning team? Meh, like I give a fuck about rounders. Elvis Presley inspired a rather good song by Kirsty MacColl (whose last hit was "A Speedboat"). 2-1

Game 23 - England win.
