If France win I'll be happy. They are playing cavalier rugby backed by a coach who didn't play a recognised goal kicker against England because "..rugby isnt about winning penalties, it's about scoring tries.." How is that for a refreshing attitude. Can you imagine England having such spirit? The Eng/France game was such an enthralling game because the French kept running the ball often from their own 22. Vive le France!


BTW I'm English and want England to win.

The Six Nations is the big winner (mwah mwah) this year. It really needed a big open tournament. Definately think bonus points should be introduced for try scoring (like the European Cup)as too much is decided on points difference. And if you avoid going to Rome this gives you a big advantage. (Sometimes)

Do you remember a few years ago when for a reason that now escapes me, there was a gap of a couple of months before the last game. England had won the title, but had to go to Ireland to try and get the Grand Slam. Ireland won it, and the losing side were then presented with the championship trophy. All very weird.

apart from armagh winning the all-ireland in 2002,that was probably the best day of my life, watching the faces on the engerland boys collecting the trophy,priceless.

anyone watching the ireland v wales match tomorrow? I wanna watch it but am not sure where it will be on as apparantly there is some important footie on.


can I gloat and say I am going the the ireland v england match at twickenham. Screamed with joy when I found out. Mate who I got the ticket through plays for a team in Ireland and he knows some of the players so we may well be in the pub with them after the game either celebrating or commiserating. SOOOOOOOO happy. Happily have a pint with O'Driscoll. That fella can drink, so just the one!

      Shower enclosure installation

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags.

      Plumber recommendation - A.F.E Plumbing Services

      Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
