Hi Shamil

Thanks! Though football is an area that range far, far down on my priority list. I have, however, learned some of the terms of the sport and by throwing these in, I can often mess up a discussion between beer drinking pub-style "experts". Great fun.

The old Hamlet movie from '64 is, by the way, by many - including me - considered the best Hamlet movie ever made. Not that more recent interpretations are bad, but this one stands out.

Sorry, Hans, I missed to congratulate you with Denmark winning over the Netherlands in Euro 2012 Football Championship.
I should have mentioned Asger too.
My congratulations Gustav, Hans and Asger! :) (missed somebody else from Denmark?)

Thank you.

P.S. From my childhood Hans-Christian Andersen (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Christian_Andersen) your Hans full namesake got somehow associated in my braincells with Sweden not with Denmark. I have been to Denmark, Copenhagen, and I have seen the monument to Hans-Christian Andersen there still I didn't get wrong link to Sweden destroyed :)
And Denmark was always associated for me with Hamlet (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamlet), from my very early childhood  ages- we all study "Hamlet" here in kindergarten you know :) - just kidding but AFAIKR I first watched this film (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamlet_(1964_film)) when a kid - since that time Denmark and Hamlet are tightly linked for me: when in Denmark I have been to Elsinore, everything was there as I have got it in my very early age from the Soviet movie...
