It just won't be the same without 'beef's dribbling ramblings.

It'll be tight, if Ireland pick up too many injuries then England will win, otherwise it'll go to the men in green.

Here's for some good attacking rugby to watch, and for Italy to be able to start improving again, but I think that once Parisse retires they'll probably not stand a chance of a win.

And yet my booze fridge is rammed full of my favourite tipples.

I've 10 bottles of Herefordshire Vintage cider 8.4% winking at me some leffe Brun
Thatchers Gold, Loddon , London Prides and a few cases of Kronnenburg left over from Xmas.
(Let alone the wines and top shelf stuff ).


But I'm going to be dry and have to stay dry until #3 arrives in Mid March. I worked it out between Jan and usual 6N I'd be consuming upwards of 70,000 calories in booze alone so a decent break from the wickedly addictive lady in the bottle will certainly do me a heap load of good.

That said if Wales start to hump England next weekend well that will be very difficult

Beefy. Can't believe it frown

Anyhoo, can't wait for the tournament this year. Hopefully Scotland will fulfill the promise of the autumn and the form of Glasgow and really add something this year.

Looking forward to all the games this weekend, no duds at all.

Why the slow pace you are drinking a beer every 13 mins... c'mon that's not drinking smile

Lol - we had a drawn up version back in Uni days for the 6Nations. When we played Wales were up second game of the Sat - apparently I crawled out of the venue (literally) before half time.

Lesson learnt when in the first year don't challenge PHD prop forwards to drinking games - they did LOL when the challenge was set and somehow I kept losing...

to be fair I'm targeting the stronger beers so some allowance must be made!

first one 5.5%

bishops finger now 5.4%

I tend to start on Herefordshire Vintage 8.4% 500ml 4 of those in 60mins - game changer it's like having not far off two bottles of wine in an hour...



(Didn't know beers could be lower than 55".5% smile )

lol I've made that error before

Paid up top price Wales tickets in Cardiff and at least three times I've been so battered I couldn't find my seat and one time stood near the bar for the whole game leaning against the wall for some support and needing to stand to try to sober up/get some air (you know what I mean)
