Bloody awful game only lightened by some nice stewards, some scantily clad young ladies doing some dancing, some fierce French pear brandy that Pierre found in his Barbour, and two late scores.
Crikey, it was cold. And some of those idiots were wearing short sleeved shirts?! I would have refused to play if our kitman had presented me with anything less than a 54togg, double-stitched number 11 shirt. Mad beggars.
Referee: George Clancy (RFU) I had my own thoughts on what R-F-U could possibly stand for...
And I don’t think we featured on TV despite only having 3,081 hardy/foolish souls there with us.
Odd bunch, Scots rugby folk – not like going to see a game in Ponty. Not nasty or anything, just, well… different and (whisper it) a bit posh…
Right.
Early flight today from Glasgow. Home, heating switched on, water all over kitchen, oh joy. Now, I am no plumber but I have managed to fix it, so the Darling Wife and I can get into town (after a veggie sausage sandwich for me, a fish finger sarnie for her - thank you my darling - delicious) for the Welsh game.
Should be good. I just hope and pray that Gareth Jenkins has, discretely, drawn the ref’s attention to the rules on crossing. Or technically ‘obstruction’. They do like a bit of ‘dummy running’ these Aussies.
My thoughts on this? Let 'em. Just smash the Holy ###k [enough of that please, ed] out of the runners in front of the ball. Not just a little bosh you understand, a career threatening wallop, please.
Soon put a stop to all that obstruction nonsense.
And, I must confess, I am a little worried that our scrum and lineout my squeak. I do hope I am proven wrong…
And, if you gave me a present at my birthday party on the 27th, I WILL be sending you a thank you note jus as soon as I can try and work out what everyone gave me. I was, you may understand, a little blurry when opening them in the early hours of Saturday morning. Ho-hum.
Right.
