WHAT A GAME! end-to-end stuff - England one down all through the second half - Beckham gets two in injury time! .......I'll get my coat."

It's the way I tell 'em.

I was at QCon 2008 in London last week and we had James Govenor of Redmonk open the "Architectures You've Always Wondered About" track - what a tosser (another british-english phrase beloved of Reg users).

That was a universal opinion of my unscientific poll of 3 other people attending.
