Terry,
sorry this came off slightly wrong, what i was trying to say was if i say football in england then it means soccer, if i say football in ireland it means GAA, if i say football in OZ i mean australian rules....
Glad to see you are back on your feet, sorry to read you were ill. i sometimes have back pain, nothing compared to yours, but i got myself a pair of MBT's and they are fantastic, makes you walk straight but they are not uncomfortable. they help posture etc. a bit expensive but well worth it

>>America is the best at football, but their football is American Football, in Ireland football is GAA, in OZ its Australian rules, UK its soccer, New Zealand its Rugby, football means very different things in different countries

>Sorry, Mark, but in England it's FOOTBALL or "footy". If you asked anyone for a game of soccer they'd assume you'd never played it. :-)

>A SA woman I know keeps referring to a "soccer ball". As soccer is a corruption of "associated football" trhat kmeans she refers to an "associated football-ball"
