"Why I want to meet the England football team in Vienna on 16th November!"
lets have a competition:-
please write a hundred or so words, as a comment to this file, on the topic in title - "Why I want to meet the England football team in Vienna on 16th November!"
I will look for some prizes, like a football, "Bend it like Beckham", "Fever Pitch" ( Nick Hornby is also here during that time , see http://www.einestadteinbuch.at/ ) and Beckham's autobiography... maybe even with luck a meeting with some of the team, who knows....
best of luck, and have fun, nigel
