What world cup? They have their own Africa world cup on home ground!!! :eek:

 

Wa yaa baadey, iyo haye. Haad semi-final baa la maraya. One team is already out, the final is starting today., heebel iyo heebel baa waata kubaada :D

 

I hope it will be done by friday, so I can watch ghana in peace, otherwise I will have to join the locals at the Park. Sadly the Somali news on Universal and kick off is the same time!

@ Malika! I am scared for some peoples health in this election, too much excitement. I heard ina heebl has forgotten to eat lunch, dinner and jaad three days in a row. He has just been on the phone and computer, spreadsheet, graphs, pie-charts and all. Yaa ba dhee!
