Sixty Six
14/11/2006
This weekend we went to see the movie sixty six. It is the story of a young jewish boy who feels he is almost invisible to his family. When he finds his barmitzvah is on the day of the world cup final he knows that is England qualify, no one will care about his big day. Well we all know what happens! A enjoyable British movie!
On 20th July 1966, as a 4 year old boy I was taken on holiday by my mum and dad. We stayed at the Roker Hotel and as I drank lemonade and ate cheese and onion crisps, I watched England beat Germany 4-2! Forty years of hurt and I am still waiting for another day like that. As I look back, crisps, drink, England, holiday, my parents....can it get better?
I believe the answer is a resounding YES! I know live in Wales (hurrah), have great kids, am really happy, know I am doing what God would have me do.......I love my life!!!
