Magnanimous in victory
Well, what a scene! Me, a nervous wreck for the last ten minutes of the match and unable to celebrate in the Bier Kellar because the owner of the Coppid Beech R/bout hotel was in the bar at the time, and seemed unhappy that England had lost! I really wanted to go up to him and do a celebratory Ace Ventura "Can you feel that, buddy? Huh? Huh?" routine - but it's never a good idea to bite the hand that gigs you.
Not a great game on Sat, Wales edged a shaky encounter that could have gone either way - both sides missed opportunities, but thankfully Gavin Henson had a big game and kicked that penalty to seal it.
I'm off to Italy next weekend for a stag do that will be taking in the Italy vs. Wales match. Will be a hard match, will be a hard weekend but I'm looking forward to it all! As they say "When in Rome - do as the Romans do" so we'll be holding vomitariums, enslaving Persians, and denying the influence of ancient Greece on our own arts, traditions and culture.
