Of course! :thumbup:

 

Two weeks ago I listened to the album Coming Up For Air by Kodaline. I thought I had already listened to it a few months ago but apparently not, and I fell in love with almost all the songs :wub: (+ the ones I already knew and loved)

 

I love the album (I don't think that will be of any surprise to you) :). They played a concert (Christmas Ball) in Dublin last night with a few other artists I like such as All Tvvins. I listened to it on the radio, it was a treat! It's always a great event, last year had Hozier, Little Green Cars, Gavin James, Kodaline. I try to hint every year for someone to by me ticket for it as Christmas present but I guess I'm not trying hard enough :d

That must be an amazing concert! 

Too bad they don't get the hint :(

So we are getting close to Christmas Holidays, and I want to share with you a Portuguese theme from the early 90's that got so popular that nowadays everyone sings it at this time of the year. (I'm sharing here because I would never send this as a TISC entry, but I would like to show it anyways :p)

 

As a curiosity fact, when there are football matches between any of our 3 big teams (Benfica, Porto, Sporting) during this time of the year (from mid-November to December's 25th), the winning team fans sing this song to their rivals to provoke them :p

    • Earlier today, Taiwan beat the USA    Of course it's car from the best US tram but it's still a big deal for Taiwanese baseball
    • And even here we lose to France? I really don't know what's the point of organizing the Olympics if you can't make progress in practically any sport. France has the Olympics in 2030 and there they will definitely prepare 100%, just like for Paris. We can't do that. It's obvious that in ski jumping we have no chance of winning medals, but decency dictates that we should at least win here with a France like that.
    • There is no snow in Lillehammer 
    • Finally the ski jumping season begins 11 teams in the (real) mixed team competition, no Switzerland.
    • Most of our athletes are constantly bothered by something: the pressure to qualify, the miss of pressure when they have already qualified, etc. It's the same in football: at the beginning of the season they are a poor form becouse of a little played and at the end of the season they are tired. They are always looking for excuses. A real champion always plays at a high level, like Sinner, and doesn`t look for 1000 excuses for his poor performance.
    • Think it is mentally difficult for the two teams with the Olympic place guaranteed and the pressure off, whereas everyone else is absolutely playing at 110%.  I'm sure things will be better once they get to Milan. 
    • There's no point in cheating, these were terrible European Championships for us. Retronaz out of form, Constantini with a huge number of big mistakes. Only illness can excuse it... We've probably lost the last 10 matches with Switzerland... It looks like Constantini had the tournament of her life in mixed doubles in 2022 in Beijing and she will never reach this level again.
    • What good is it to us if we took 4th place and lost an important match? If Constantini was sick, I forgive her, but I'm afraid that the Italian team will not exceed a certain level. Yes, they have made progress since 2022, but they lack that one decisive step to become a class team. Here we lost all important matches with teams at our/higher level: Sui x2, Sco x2, Swe. We only won with the one we were supposed to win with. I don't believe in a medal for this team in Cortina. After 2022, it seemed that Constantini could dominate women's curling, but it didn't happen that way. After Sinner's recent successes, I opened my eyes a bit and started to demand more from our athletes, coaches, and officials. I have no intention of being satisfied with 4th place, because with this approach, you won't achieve anything great.
    • play their best, but only get 1, so  get bronze 6-4!  
    • Oh dear, once again a 50% shot from Constantini when she needed 100%.   blank the end & go into the 10th with the Hammer of Thor.
