South Africa win the 2010 World Cup bid
I'm faster than IOL on this one - we just won the bid to host the FIFA 2010 World Cup after being robbed of the opportunity for 2006 four years ago (it feels like yesterday!). Yay us! The first African nation to host the cup.
UPDATE: the first IOL article. And some more links: BBC News, CNN and FIFA.

Damn dude, that’s a lot of tickets! It’s no wonder then that you’re always broke by the end of the first week into each month.
That whole announcement from Zurich followed by a live broadcast from the Union Buildings in Pretoria. Somehow we’re all appart of this BIG thing… It’s like the new “Alive with possibilities” campaign… goosebumps!
Hi,
bet you were worried that I wasn’t coming back!
Well, here I am. What else am I going to do now that there are no more dispatches to wait for. All of my neighbors give me dirty looks and shoo their cats into the house when I walk by…oh well….
Hello to your other commenting friends. Have two questions.
Who’s FIFA? Will there be dispatches to get addicted to? (evil laugh)
I have a favor to ask. Oh, you thought this was about you right.
Well, it’s not! It’s about ME! me,me,me,me,me.
Helllllllo, can we please focus on ME now. Thank you.
I need a URL for a photo and I don’t have a webserver. So I thought, now who do I know that has a weserver? hmmmm.
And also, do you think, if I send you a photo, that you could put my head on Pam Anderson’s body? No, I don’t mean for the photo, I mean permanently.
Would appreciate any assistance.
I’m off to investigate FIFA.
Bye,
Tricia
Tricia: send your photo this way… otherwise you could upload it yourself to my digicam.coza ‘Users’ album. As for Pam, I’ll answer that one in due time. ha!
If I do the ‘users’ link do I have to sign up?
You see, I’m terrified of commitment.I haven’t even named my goldfish yet.
haha – go wild!
Go South Africa!
Maybe S.A. will win the cup? :P I sure hope so!
South Korea went way up when they hosted it.
This can be a boost to South African football!
