Six Nations 2014

Woo hoo!! England on form. Sorry Welsh people, we have one very happy house here.

I'm not surprised nina, you played really well. I just wish we hadn't been quite as awful!
I'm glad your house is happy, as my DH is English, half of ours is too.

Very gracious of you nannyfran you wouldn't get that from majority of rival soccer fans.
I love rugby

Me too, in spite of today. Did you see the footballer at half time who said much the same thing? It's always a nicer atmosphere in rugby matches.

Missed that. Was making

A bit of an aside, but did anyone else dislike the women singing the National Anthems during the Wales/ England game? As if the crowd needed any help to sing! The woman singing the Welsh one was particularly awful, her rendition full of mispronounciations.

And SO SLOW - it's not a style of singing the anthems I have ever liked. But I always find the unaccompanied verse of Flower of Scotland very moving.

Yes, not even singing in time to the band.

Have to say I am delighted with the final result. I think (know!) Ireland deserved to win the championship and delighted for good old Brian to go out on a high. A very tense 10 minutes at the end tho!

As we Welsh had an off season, I'm delighted that Brian could go out on a high and Ireland were worthy winners.
I'm sorry our game was marred by the Hogg incident, it was so unlike him and I would have liked a win under more equal conditions.Why didn't we play like that all through the tournament?
I don't know what I shall do at weekends now, I might be forced into ironing and housework!Awful thought!
