The people he meets along the way and the mode of travel he takes. It is meant to make you chuckle just think it could be your taking the tour. See you in South Africa.
After watching his favorite team Brasil getting beat in the Quarters Scotty just had 2 get friggin outta the Pub, and get some fresh air,...it's amazing how Cape Town can entrap U, (Thank God!) with all that beauty, it just shakes U out of your doldrum's, gloom and doom get kicked 2 the curb in this jewel on the 2 Ocean's, the Rainbow Nation has a diamond here and our hero's have already agreed that they will come back after the World Cup is over,and really get 2 know it, Shit! said Nash!...we'll have 2 win the freakin Pool's, this is a shot of Nash trying 2 get Scotty,the car, Table Mountain, the plane pulling the sign, (Which! by the way our 2 hero's found out later, wassa set up by Webb & Ronni) this is without a doubt thee iconic landmark of Cape Town, 2 most people U don't have 2 say the name, it speaks 4 itself, just like the Eiffel Tower in Paris,the Pyramids at Cairo, the Sydney Opera House, Big Ben in London, etc,etc, this was a friggin great escape from the blues, tomorrow there going back down 2 the the Watering hole with a group of Webb & Ronni's friends 2 watchy the game between Argentina v Germany, Scotty was thinking that this should have been the "World Cup" sob!

This was the ExPAT'S putting on a Party 4 the English fan's, it was hopefully going 2 B a winning Party,...and the least said the better, and the consensus among the patron's, was that they didn't deserve 2 win it anyhow, there sub-par performance throughout the tournament was not acceptable, we the fans have been waiting 4 one of our teams from the wee island in the North Sea 2 do them proud, and it looks like were going backwards, we need an Inquisition into the whole debacle, we need 2 put more emphasis on our own players, and those managers that come 2 the BigSHOW 2 scout out the talent from abroad, R just putting another nail in our Coffin, we've had the premier League now 4 twenty odd years, our home brew's R a dying species, the comments of getting back 2 the Academy's, is like the one about the horse and the gate, 2 friggin late Bro!
