fat boy

After the visit of Mourinho to the Holy Land last month, yesterday saw the arrival of one of the world's greatest, and probably fattest, players, Ronaldo. Say what you like, the good intentions are there, and that ol' geezer Peres still knows how to pull a celeb over to these shores. And say what you like about the locals, they sure know how to scare any celeb's entourage into cancelling planned press conferences. Mmm, some might say that Israelis hold the copyright on encroaching (occupying, perhaps?) one's personal space...

I'm not sure what Ronaldo made of all the hysteria, though he's sure to pig into some comfort food, such as some locally produced pita and hummus, to forget all his troubles. Bless 'im. Don't forget to try the olives, fat-boy, very tasty, though if they offer you some Goldstar or Maccabee beer, politely refuse...
