I’m not a fan

I’ve had this photo for a while. It’s on an art walk (art??) in a forest near here. I’ve never been a patriot in the strictest sense even though I think there quite a few things I like about living in Germany.

As the football (sic!) world cup is underway at the moment it’s possibly a good time to post this. Although I’ve never been a rah-rah football fan, I watch the occasional match (more like the occasional 10 minutes) with my husband who would much rather watch rugby if it were on German televsion but he is interested having played football himself when he was young. However, I will not watch this world cup. I’m appalled at the whole corrupt system surrounding the cup, FIFA and the US. I am even more appalled by the politics by the United States, like forbidding entry to certain players from Iran or the fans of complete nations like Ivory Coast.

But if you want to wave flags, even the German one, here you go:
