Predictions For 2008…Stranger Things Have To Happened

A summer will pass without football-related violence. There may be a major international football tournament

taking place in the summer of 2008 but it doesn't concern any of the home nations. Town centres will be filled

with happy shoppers rather than drunken louts.

Gordon Brown and David Cameron will become firm friends. The political heavyweights will put aside their differences,

start playing dominoes together on a weekly basis and form a strong friendship. 

Britney will be named mum of the year. The Toxic singer starts to see the errors of her ways and ditches her

partying lifestyle in favour of a more home / family-orientated existence. She is rewarded by readers of glossy

mags, who vote her as celebrity mother of the year.  

Steps to make a comeback. Having watched Take That and the Spice Girls make successful comebacks,

Lisa Scott-Lee, Faye Tozer, H, Lee and Claire (better known as Steps) could decide it's high time they turned

the clocks back and made a comeback of their own. Heaven help us.  

Prince Harry to get engaged. Harry will beat brother William and become the first of the young princes to

get engaged. Given Harry's relationship with Chelsy Davy has reportedly been on the rocks, the identity

of the bride to be could come as a complete surprise. You wouldn't put it past him.  

Lewis Hamilton will go one better and win the Formula One drivers' championship. He nearly achieved it in

his debut season but was pipped at the post. As a result, Lewis Hamilton will come back stronger and more

determined in his second full season and he will take some stopping. The smart money has to be on the

youngster winning the first of many world titles in what promises to be a great career.
