Alright. I am not such a hard-hearted asshole that I cannot be moved by that...What am I saying, of course I am...Arright, fine!, but I am still genuinely moved by that.

The French national team came to England today to play a "friendly," i.e. an exhibition, soccer match against the English national team at the national stadium, Wembley. And Wembley was bedecked in the French tricolor and the fans made the French flag holding signs, and the players sang together, arms joined, and Prime Minister Cameron was there on the pitch singing, and 80,000 Englishmen and Frenchmen in the stands sang lustily La Marseillaise...And I would have been lusting myself had I been there. 

Genuinely touching moment.
