The time has come the Donut said,
to talk of many things
of forwards, scrums and full backs
and flyers on the wings
of why the Aussies went to pot
whilst England became kings!


It's coming home it's coming home,
It's coming - Rugby's coming home!

Me and me Mum and me Dad and me Gran
We're off to Waterloo
Me and me Mum and me Dad and me Gran
Wiv a bucket of vindaloo

We're gonna score more points than you - ENGLAND!!!!

For those unfortunate people here that don't appreciate the beautiful game of rugby I have to tell you that the Rugby World Cup starts in Australia on Friday

If you live in Georgia then you should keep your head down on Sunday.

If you are an American you might highlight Friday 31st Oct when your team (yes you do have a team!) will play France ( a real needle match there! )in Wollongong - which you may or may not know is located midway between Helensburgh and Kiama about 85 km south of Sydney. I understand the harbour is quite pretty as well. The match will take place during the 'viva la gong' festival in which tourists pay 10 A$ to bang an old gong with chopsticks then eat witchetty grubs.


Ramble over!!!!

As I shake my head reading this, my brain turns in circles. Donut, Wollongong, Kiama and Georgia just should not be in the same sentence...

Wollongong harbour? Port Kembla - a steelworks - think (UK) Newcastle with more sun and drugs...

Sure I do...

Rugby: Run around in the dirt, kicking and punching and trying to get a leathersack between 2 poles...

Cricket: Standing in rain with a stick hoping to hit a small ball that other players throw at you... and run?

Right?... [img]smile.gif[/img]

For you Americans out there, Cricket's got the scrum and the missing teeth and Rugby's got the flattened baseball bat.

TL I may be wrong, but I think you have it backwards.

Does he really? I suppose he was being deadly serious so you have a good point.
