Note: This topic allows you to post a picture with your message using the Browse button under the Add Message box. You can only post one pic per message - and it will always appear above the text of your message, whichever order you browse/type in. If your pic doesn't appear to have loaded, refresh the page (they can be slow to appear). If it doesn't load at all, try making it smaller (50KB max).
So - rules are there are no rules, no insider footballer info needed - it's just who you think will win, lose or draw - like Paul the octopus in the last World Cup - this is using the brilliance of gransnetters (and CariGransnet's goldfish - named Goldie, of course) to predict who will win the World Cup.
Every morning we post the fixtures for that day for you to post your predictions.
You'll get a point for each correct prediction (win, lose or draw) and for those with a competitive streak, there will be a bonus points option suggested for the day, so you 'fancy' up your entry <ooh>
Every morning we will update our leaderboard, however you're more than welcome to join in at whatever stage. Obviously there's less chance of winning if you join in half-way, unless you're a pro and take part in the bonus rounds!
There will be a mystery prize for the gransnetters with the most points at the end of the World Cup (13 July).
Let the games commence! Post below if you'll be taking part from Thursday.

Does Columbian blend coffee count as I could give you a good recipe for that?
Indeed it does! 
I have wiped the grease off of our family recipe scrapbook and unstuck the pages to find our favourite garlic ridden Greek Easter Lamb recipe
maggiemaybe remind me next spring about your asparagus soup as we had loads in the garden last month.
Uruguay/Costa Rica has me stumped for recipes 
Today I am going for Columbia and Uruguay to win and England to draw with Italy.
I have added our favourite Italian pasta recipe with a few typos.

Well done Rubysong I got them all wrong. Thank Gransnet for the bonus round so I can keep up.... 
Here's a picture of me to go with my Saturday predictions and I am in England.
Had an advantage in the first round as a local editor. This time the only holiday snaps I have are in Spain (never been to the other 5 
). Do I get an extra point as the picture is of me and DS in Barcelona FC stadium last year and so is football related?
Predictions:
Mexico v Cameroon DRAW
Spain WIN
Australia WIN
Technically, Mexico is in the norther part of the americas though. Whoops 
Mexico, Spain, Chile from me too. Let's have a Spanish/hispanic/S.American day
