Hope you make it, but I'm sure the bloke in front won't mind you sticking it on his shoulder. The only problem I could see with that is, if he's there supporting a team and they score. :D

The cast is due off tomorrow, replaced by a lighter one. Should be OK. If not, I'll ask if I can swap with someone on the end of the row. Or gatecrash the wheelchair section.

I've already advised him to go for the blue badgeski option. He might get lucky and they'll stick him down pitch side among the animated ad hoardings and he will get run into by that weird daschund that trots about the hoardings for some reason.

Another query needing your expert opinion and experience.
Roughly how long does it take letters and cards to get back to the UK from Russia, at least from a major city?
I want to know to see if England fall apart, they will be “home before the postcards.”

Give it a fortnight. Should get back in 7-10 days though, especially from Moscow. Cute fact: You need to put the postcard in an envelope.

Russia's final friendly before the Opening Game (in 9 days) at home to Turkey tonight. Kicks off at 5pm UK time. I'll be settled in the pub within the hour.
