Neill, apologies accepted - I think that only those of us who have Christian names spelt in different ways understand just how we feel about this. There is a Clare in the next office to mine and we sometimes share a moan about it!
Apparently at Hertford there was a notice in the Staff Room telling staff to take care with spelling Christian names, there was a Kathryn in my class and we were both listed there, as was an Elisabeth with an S not a Z, I don't know how many others were on the list!
Katharine will be happy but at least England made a fight of it. Had Goode not been sin-binned who knows?
Did any other "older" posters think the Italian scrum half, Paul Griffin, had an uncanny resemblance to Gareth Edwards? In looks not ability I hasten to add!
(Slightly) I see Old Blue Andrew Higgins scored a hat -trick of tries for Bath against Worcester yesterday in the Guinness Premiership.
last nights result certainly changed it all around! All i can say is well done France!!!
Now come Ireland have the favourites tag and based upon the last couple of games England will be pushed! But i think Englands hardet game will be France!!!
Can I pop in a little joke --- not really for the "Other Topic" ? but appropriate for recent Posts
Man on Severn Bridge -- about to jump !
Kindly spectator tries to engage him in conversation -- "Think of your Family -" ---- "Got no Family !" -- "Think of your Friends " _"Got no Friends !" ---- Pause -- "Think of Wales -- Think of Gareth Edwards !" ------ long pause----"Who ?"
"Oh for God's ske JUMP !"
Well, Chelsea scraped 3 points, thanks to Frank Lampard in the dying seconds.......
AND............
Dorking FC hammered Coulsdon 4 - 0 after a disastrous 1st half.
This afternoon, I'm off to watch Grand-Daughter, Sharna, play for Brockham. She won a penalty for her team last week, (She does dive well), and she scored for 'em as well. So, hopefully this will make a good end to the weekend.
Ahem ! -- again !
I shall have to complain to the Moderator - I have never seen Chelsea or Croyden, play at Twickenham -- how did any of the "Round Ball Gang" get into the "6 Nations "???? ---
( I shall probably be BANNED from further Posts !)
