I am playing a gig this Saturday at a rugby club in Twickenham. Imagine my disappintment when I realised it was some little dunp on the outskirts! :(


In all seriousness, it's going to be a fecker to get to!


Lets just hope England show some improvement, or shall get absolutely mullered!

Perhaps, just maybe, with Godman that year older, and a pack now regarded as pretty decent (although Murray getting crocked is a blow, and White is stepping up to lock), Scotland finally, eventually, might, who knows turn some of that promise into a decent campaign.


Or perhaps not.

The Six Nations won't be as exciting as The NFL Superbowl on Sunday where an action packed Match reached its climax when the result hinged on a dramatic finale involving The Arizona Cardinals' final offensive play in the Super Bowl, a fumble by quarterback Kurt Warner, the play being called correctly.

Kurt Warner reportedly questioned after the game why play wasn't stopped and a replay review wasn't done by the referee, feeling there was a possibility that the play should have been ruled an incomplete pass because Warner's arm was going forward. That, of course, would have enabled the Cardinals to retain possession of the ball at the 44-yard line of the Pittsburgh Steelers with five seconds remaining in the game.

Mr. Rooney, The proud Owner of The Pittsburgh Steelers was delighted that his side won the Trophy for a record 6th time.


Can you imagine how the SteelerNation felt all thru' Pennsylvania?:)

That was nothing on Ronan O'Gara's drop goal in Cardiff a couple of years ago! Seeing as you are all rugby fans how come you haven't picked a team in the Fantasy league thread?

Can anyone comment on what Hoopers was like for the rugby?

I had a couple of friends come over and we watched it in the Vale - little or no atmosphere there and especially for the ireland game, noone interested really, apart from out little group. I think the Vale is really a footie pub.


Was Hoopers any better? Thanks.


PS - I was going to switch to Hoopers between games, but I was not sure I was going to be able to find it in time, not having been there before, but if recommended will def go there next time. Cheers,.

    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
