I told Nicky the other day that I vaguely remember enjoying the sound of your singing voice, somewhere in my distant past, but he just laughed at me and told me I was an idiot.<BR/><BR/>Still, well done for watching the match live - I should try that one day.Awoogamuffinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03868669228439003143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7520303675367700778.post-53893523274801480612009-03-22T09:18:00.000+00:002009-03-22T09:18:00.000+00:00Yes, I was there - my first time actually at a mat...Yes, I was there - my first time actually at a match - and the atmosphere was wonderful. <BR/><BR/>The trouble with France is that though they may send the same fifteen players on the pitch, you have no idea what team will turn out. The team that played England last Sunday was not the same as the one that played Italy yesterday. <BR/><BR/>England also always seem to raise its game against France - the victory against France was far more convincing than yesterday's victory against Scotland.<BR/><BR/>It's that kind of variation that makes rugby fun to watch...<BR/><BR/>Sounds like you had a great time in Ireland. Say 'hello' to Amynah and keep well.David Beesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00393977902379776532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7520303675367700778.post-83030105845169035402009-03-21T15:32:00.000+00:002009-03-21T15:32:00.000+00:00You were in the stadium?

I watched it on TV in Ireland - it was only the second-ever rugby match I'd ever seen (the first being Ireland/Scotland the day before). Judging by the score, I think it was only the second-ever game the French had seen as well.strasmarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03332469508592595136noreply@blogger.com
