Dear Bryan,

I know this is a serious and sad time for you.
Like hey man, I know I'm not right next to you, but I really want to give you a nice big hug.
Trust me man, there will always be another time. England isn't such a bad football team.
You see Bryan, me and you have something in common. We're both English.
My sister just had a baby, and she lives in England. So I have an English nephew.

So all I'm trying to say is, I was rooting for England too, and it was sad to see them leave.

So if you have any emotional distress, call me up and we'll talk this out. :(

Much love and crumpets,
Mike.
