- My Cup (of Vuvuzelas) Runneth Over...Has the world just witnessed the most sanitised/homogenised World Cup experience ever?

- Diego gets his comeuppanceGreen Cape stadium in Cape Town was actually a bit of a disappointment. From a distance, it looks fantastic. But up close, it looked very temporary. The outer cladding was a metal mesh. Inside it, all was bare unpainted concrete Posted by Gelli in Gelli goes South-ish | Jul 24, 2010
