The flag is raised!
There are really no other events that invoke such unbridled amount of patriotism than sports, speak football, in Germany, where football has become more or less an unofficial second religion. With the World Cup 2010 just around the corner, the football fever has gone up a few notches lately.
Houses around the neighbourhood have started to hang up flags, rooting for their favourite team (with German flags far outnumbering the other countries). Bf’s dad decided to join in the fun and purposely bought a mast to be erected in the garden for a grandiose display of support for the German team. Although I might say, deep down I’m rooting for the Netherlands
. Go Oranje!
