Fucked off down South of the border to introduce the wee one to grandparents (mine, and their greats!) then go to a posh wedding.

England's shite - can't wait to be home tomorrow.

Union bunting all over the place. Did not like.

Beeps over the border! And we have saltires everywhere instead. Why does England cling on to the butcher's apron?

[Hopefully this posts!- been trying on and off all day]

It was an interesting game alright. Plenty to chew over for our eventual squad selection. Can't see us getting out of the group I good stead :( but hopefully some good rugby regardless.

Today was a bit of a hair down for my wife, she's submitted the final part of her MBA so what better than a few drinks and some rugby.

Well done to your wife! And aye, out the group so tough, little learned today. But the B team did the job too, a nice enoigh thought

I know someone who lives at x murrayfield drive in Edinburgh. As someone who isnt from there, do they have their back garden with a fuck off big stadium in it?

[–] Olap 2 points 1 year ago

Well, not in their garden. But just about. 67k fans, 30 players on a pitch, 14 subs, 4 refs, and one hell of an atmosphere on match days

Would you say that to a French person?

Sidebar clearly says Scots, Gàidhlig, and English all welcome here. Why not instead share about your week?
