Hello everybody, welcome to Paris. Welcome to this week's La Putie Pod, bought you by

our very good friends of Continental Tires. The sun is high. The semi-finals are upon us.

It's been a very quiet build up, as you can imagine. The Lord is alongside, as is the great man

who skippered his side to victory in 2007. Is it quite nostalgic for you coming back to Paris,

or is it till my time ago, and you've done every year since? You know what's scary, is it's

like this amount of long-sorry. It's not quite the backdrop of what I was saying.

No, it's not, is it? It's the building ground of the Olympic scene at the moment.

You are in a hotel. This is where the seffers are standing.

South African Budgets, you know, a couple of zeroes.

Zars don't go far here. Yeah, in Euroland. You've had a quite week. Would you like to apologise

down the barrel of the camera? Would you like to double that? I am not going to apologise
