'The Spanish prime minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero said jokingly yesterday that he was prepared to offer state protection to Paul before today's performance, which was live on German TV. "I am concerned for the octopus ... I am thinking of sending him a protective team," he said.

The Spanish environment and fisheries minister, Elena Espinosa, added: "On Monday, I shall be at the European Council of Ministers and I shall be asking for a [fishing] ban on Paul the octopus so the Germans do not eat him."'

Yeah bloody marvellous. Johan still has nightmares about what happened to his brother Rob the oracle when he predicted that the Netherlands would win the 1974 WC final. He escaped to his freedom and boy was there a big world for him to discover. Sadly, it ended somewhere off the southern coast of Australia.

Considering the possible future scenario concerning Johan, I think that the use of 'WC' and 'final' in the same sentence may be slightly tasteless.

True but Johan is not at that stage yet. He'll actually be happy to know that Mani the Parakeet, a professional psychic in Singapore - not an amateur like Paul, has predicted the Netherlands will win the WC.

Rather suspicious though don't you think that the man repeatedly touches and moves the card with the Dutch flag on it and then Mani picks it.

So it comes down to Tintenfisch-Orakel Paul vs a parakeet.

They should have a live fight after the game. Be slightly more entertaining than the rest of the World Cup.

I reckon Mani will look delightful, stuffed, with glass eyes on a plastic branch.

May I congratulate you on the cleanliness of your toilet facilities?

It's clean as it is a Spanish-made toilet. Elegant and perfect in design, but sometimes requires a bit of time for the flush to get going. The alternative one in the second loo upstairs is the Dutch van der total shit model. It worked well at first but soon became dirty and pretty useless.

Vaarwel, Johan. Try not to kick the other goldfish in the chest on your way down.
