I told my friend at work that I was 75% Austrian. She said: “Are you related to Hitler? Do you know Fritzl? Have you got a cellar? – bet you’d like one”. I watched England play Austria at football in a pub in Balham. I didn’t know what to chant. I’m mostly Austrian but I don’t know any of the songs.
