Too right!!

Had two Welshies round for the match - puts last year's aberration into perspective.

Much beer, home-made pizza and a good seeing-to by England. Wonderful!

Managed to get tickets for the game - England were superb especially as the Welsh were very skillful.

Great win! Last year seems to have been a blip. Perhaps and hopefully so. It was also good to see the French fall to the Sweaties and for Itally to do so well against the Irish.

If we can score tries, or even trees, like that, we should be coming on well for the World cup next year. I just hope that current form holds out in the Stade de France!

Philippa told us you were sick, glad to see you are better, but you must find a new epithet, you have used that before, I find 'Crikey' works quite well.

Though the team were a bit wobbly yesterday, but the Italians are a lot better than they used to be.

Will be cheering very loudly for the Sweaties today..........

a 'bit' wobbly? OMG we were totally shocking. We play like that against the French and they are going to kick our sorry behinds around the pitch.

Well, that obviously depends on which french team turns up though. The ones that smashed the Irish in the 1st half or the ones that looked pathetic in the 2nd half.

Mind you I was pleased theSweaties beat the French.

Some strange games at the weekend, particularly France v. Ireland......

Pity about Murray, I don't think he was being particularly malicious. If someone had tackled me about 15 mins after I had passed the ball, I too would have wanted to disentangle myself and get on with the game. Shame he was a bit careless.

Roll on the next round!
