The Psychic Banana....

[10ClarionSt]

...which was on This Morning today I believe, says that England will win on Sunday. If the psychic banana says so, it must be true!

[jim360]

That's just ridiculous, bananas aren't psychic.

And besides, I looked at the tea leaves this morning and it suggested an Italy win.

[Mamyalynne]

I wouldn't dare argue with the banana.

[jim360]

I suppose using bananas specifically to make predictions has a certain a-peel.

[tonyav]

Has Paul the psychic octopus made a prediction yet though.

[10ClarionSt]

It's all in the unpeeling, jim. All is revealed. How can you disagree? It must be true! You can't unpeel tealeaves.

[Mamyalynne]

From his watery grave?

Doubt it.

[tonyav]

MamyalynneFrom his watery grave?


Ohhh nooooooo :-(

[Mamyalynne]

He died in 2010 Tony.

[tonyav]

His predictions must have been to much for his poor old ticker, Mamya.

[Ellipsis]

You can still talk to him, Mamya ... I have, using my own psychic powers.

Paul said it gets to 4-4 on penalties and then he ran out of arms!!!!

[Mamyalynne]

Any excuse.

[tonyav]

Paul said it gets to 4-4 on penalties and then he ran out of arms!!!!

I ain't gonna be suckered into betting on that score.

[10ClarionSt]

I'm thinking of giving you BA for that Ellipsis but I'll wait to see if there are more replies. You're in the running though!

[jim360]

I'm going to predict that nothing will top that effort.

[roopower]

I saw a lizard on tv that predicted a win for Italy. Mind you, they may have only out food in the box with the Italian flag and none in Englands!

[calmck]

The Meerkats say England. They have been correct on all games so far!!!

[Ken4155]

Did the banana say how England would win, 10C? As you know, i like a punt and i need to know if the win will come in normal time, extra time, penalties, etc, etc, etc. The devil is in the detail when it comes to punting on football finals.

[10ClarionSt]

Unfortunately Ken, I didn't see the actual programme. This only came to me via an avid watcher of This Morning. That's one programme I've never, ever watched. Tis true. However, there could be another Italian victory today if Berretini beats Djokovic. I tipped Berretini for the title before Wimbledon started, but you know me Ken, I don't do gambling. Oooo no!

[Ellipsis]

Oh Paul, what a let-down ...

[Mamyalynne]

I hate nanas now.
