England go out of Euro 2012

I attended the Early Eucharist at St. John's this morning as Sara and Mary were taking part in the Walk the Wards event at Wilton House in aid of the Salisbury Hospital Stars Appeal - a total walk around the grounds of Wilton House (home of the patron, the Earl of Pembroke) of some 10 kilometres.  At the last minute, Mary decided that she didn't wish to join in and so I was left at home with both of the children.  I did some work in the study and this afternoon cut the grass on the bank.  The weather has, at last, turned much warmer.  This evening, after I cooked a prawn curry for Sara and myself, we all watched the England v. Italy Quarter-Final of the Euro 2012 competition.  Typically, for England, the game went to extra time and penalties with the final result being that Italy went through to the Semi-Finals by winning on penalties 4-2.  England's Ashley Cole and Ashley Young both missing from the spot.  No great surprises, really, as Italy were by far the better side throughout the match.
