Very true. Ireland are building phases and look more dangerous while France seem to be waiting for "big" moments.
Not the thrilling game I was hoping for
Ireland was good ... and we was sooooooo bad ... No movement, nothing ... almost never went within the 22 meters ... Well done Ireland  |

Yep. France seemed to be waiting for "big" moments, but just didn't create anything. Although they did have a lot of turnovers. However, as in the Wales Scotland game, it is about making chances and converting those chances into points. France definitely have potential but really need to be more dynamic.

Need a soul in this team Yes they do. Even though I support England, I always want every team to play well so that every match is a joy to watch (weather conditions permitting). And when France are good they are AMAZING and a true joy to watch. I know tomorrow's match will be a formality, but I'll be interested to see how many tries England score. In other news, only just noticed a letter arrived for me today (in the hallway where all our post is kept). I'm now going to spend 20 mins reading through information about pensions options relating to my new job. Yay (zzzzzzzzzzz) |

Even though i support France, i prefer when we loose a great match than when we win a poor one ... Yes, in fact, i prefer when we win a great one lol. The ultimate reference is still the one we win vs NZ in Cardiff in 1999 during the World Cup. Italy, year after year, becomes a real opponent in Rugby ... but i also think that it will be a formality for England tomorrow Other thing, it is now time for the saturday night trilogy: Rum, Green Lemon and Liquid Sugar  |

Eventful last hour.
In a very quiet, peaceful neighborhood, there's usually that one house that has to screw it up for everyone. Well, that'd be the house a few houses up across the street. Not really part of our neighborhood, as it's part of the other side of the busy street, but still.
I was finishing up cutting the grass and I heard women yelling. My wife and I kinda hurried up putting things away, as the rains are coming, and soon enough, here come the sirens and even more yelling. 10 years ago, I'm in my front yard wondering how I can help but that's no longer the case. 4 cop cars eventually come. About half an hour later, they bring the usual suspect out. He's resisting arrest, kicking, screaming, biting, spiting. They had to tie by his feet and bag him. Ambulance came about 15 mins later. My guess is he's off to the funny farm for a few days. Cops filmed it all as evidence to cover their own arses. Stopped traffic in both directions, big ole mess.
But it's always only from that one house, so at least it's just one, not like cancer

Self control, I'm good at. Patience, not typically an issue. Being with reach of a dream I've had for the best part of half my life, and thought wouldn't be fulfilled for another 10-15 years? Testing. My wife (my wonderful wife) informed me a while back that, when I replace my car later this year, that I don't need to get another sensible family car; We don't need two of them, and she's just bought one. So I can buy a car based on how fun it is to drive, I can buy an impractical car that won't carry the whole family, I can buy a convertible... In short, I can buy an MX5. Ever since I first had a ride in one seventeen years ago I've wanted one, never really thinking I'd get one, or at least not when there were kids to drive around... But having dived in and done all the due dilligence I can, researched any likely issues, I'm now ready to buy, but there's the small matter of needing the money. I should have left the research until later in the year, but I wanted to be prepared (and as an impractical purchase, I'm determined to make it a fairly cheap one) and there's one sitting at a dealership just a half hour away that's practically perfect, and... I shall exercise self control. I shall be patient. I shan't bankrupt my family when I have a perfectly adequate car sat outside that's no real age for a modern car (10 years old). I'm sure that when the time comes, I'll find one that's exactly right, even with the right colour, which is the only thing that's 2nd or 3rd choice on the one nearby right now... But if I say that I was looking at my Ultrasabers earlier and wondering how much I could get by selling them all, well, I think that shows how twitchy I'm feeling right now  |
