living in the dr has its highs and lows, but do you ever get those times when you get really homesick and wish you were downing a few pints in a (24hr) pub back home.
some recent moments for me were;
1) jonny wilkinson's late drop goal.
2) after london's winning olympic bid, shortly followed by the tragic suicide bombers.
3) liverpool's fantastic second half comeback.
4) the next world cup when england beats germany 6-0.
now it is the imminent death of the legendary george best........so sad.
of course the average dominican (or even dr1 reader), unlike most of the world, has no idea who george best is, but at least the rest of us can rejoice that at some time in our lives you couldn't help at least raise a smile for this 'once in a lifetime' character.
is there anyone else on dr1, that will have an imaginary beer with me in salute to george? - not only for his natural talent on the field, but the talent he had for downing a few bottles and still managing to bed miss universe.
the world will not be the same without him.
