Day 57 - Basel

3 rugby matches including England vs Australia, 3 football matches including Switzerland and Englands opening Euros games and sport on in the pub from 12 to 12 there was only one plan today.

Great start watching England smash the Aussies in their own back yard with few other English guys and and aussies for good measure. Then straight into Switzerland vs Albania where it appears there are more Albanians in Basel then Swiss which led to a great atmosphere in the streets (no violence here!). Was then time to meet up with a very happy John to watch Ireland beat South Africa in their own back yard for the first time. What could possibly gone wrong with just England to play...

Luckily Russia scoring their injury time equaliser and the trouble in the crowd that came with it is a bit of a blur for me. Hopefully better against Wales on Thursday.

Great day, wallet is a fair bit lighter with Swiss beer prices but well worth it. Going to be interesting in the bike tomorrow. Czytaj więcej
