TT the ninth (yeah, it said 8th, I was wrong)
So it turns out that today is Thursday. Who’d have guessed that shocker following yesterday being Wednesday? Course yesterday was the start of my working week so part of me is busy thinking today is Tuesday. Gonna get a pleasant surprise when I wake up thinking “thursday, nother two days of work” only for it [...]

Just hush!
So, instead of rugby this blog will know turn its attention to… cricket! Nah, not really, though I have watched some of our winning ways. Who knew that failed[1] furrin[2] crickteers could play so well? Or, if I’m being honest, who really cared. Still, now that they are out there winning, and fans are singing [...]

Judging you, judging me
Yesterday at work Bhà cúpla caÃlÃnà ag suigh in front of the desk. Psychology students. And as they were studying they were chatting[1] and got on to discussing suicide.[2] Now I’ve always felt that suicide is something of a selfish act, because lets face it, it is the people left behind who have to deal [...]

Swing low
Yes, putting those two words in the title does feel like sacrilege, but I just don’t care. I’m a heathen, right?
But the reporting that the match is getting in the English papers is ridiculous. Fair play[1] to the team in white, but they played like the slow lumbering pack that they are. Catt had how [...]

How do you spell controversy?
Well now, what to say about Saturday’s rugby? Do I use the old “a win is a win” cliché? Or the fact that Ireland won despite not really playing well is a sign of a good team? Or do I moan that they didn’t prepare and never looked like the team that played against England?
Or [...]

Thank Crunchie
It’s Friday.
Pic nicked from here
I think a long lie-in will be had tomorrow. Although not too long, obviously, as the match starts at half one, so I’ll have to be up for that. Scotland- you going down! fingers crossed, touch wood, etc etc.
Denis Hickie has been having back spasms[1] and so Geordan Murphy has [...]

Week 213
But first:
Jonny Wilkinson may be out injured again. Seeing as how he is an English rugby player, I shouldn’t be fan[1] but I just find this really sad. He is such a fantastic player. I wouldn’t say he is better than Ronan, cause that’d be a traitorous action, and I really dislike the way England [...]
