good stuff, I'll try to do likewise, i'll be going straight from work so might be a bit later, i'll give you a call

think aaron's working, jamesie is waxy's still out of biunds tonight??

I suppose the point is that we have only so much to go round in terms of resources, so we can't really afford to be taking a punt on some complete unknown - and, in so far as its possible to judge, never having seen the guy play, his cv shows nothing to suggest he'll be up to the grade. And Jamesie'...

good work, michael! is tara that girl you ultimately spoke to last time, the blonde one with the northern accent? If so hopefully she'll be there on Fri, because she seemed to be a decision-maker, rather than a shoulder-shrugging numpty like most of waxy's employees!! who all's thinking of rocking up?

sorry to change the subject, but is the edinburgh match on telly anywhere on Fri night?

where's the offside bar then? probably be away for the wales match, but should be around for scotland..

shag it, sounds like I missed a good afternoon on sat.. and yes thanks for sharing my near-miss.. :oops: i would never have lived it down.. I asked my mate to tape the matches for me, and on principle he refused!! but yes, i escaped, i've never written an email faster (or more smilingly) than the on...

Jamesie - I'm sure between us we "rained on" some little fauna as well, who chose that particular flora for habitat..

gash i think i'm in gay paree on the 22nd..

Mike - I'm keen to watch Glasgow match, when is it on? Tomorrow?

Sounds like I missed a decent outing (if not result..)!! I had a family do that night, and had to rely on Gusher and Ryan Constable..

Jamesie - I'd definitely be up for a trip to Bath, I went last year with Kate

Dave & CKav - long time no "see"! Glad you enjoyed yr visit to Belfast!

where are you guys tonight? my emails down, so don't know if you've emailed recently.. I might have to work a bit later, so might go straight from t'office..

i went for ulster win, bp sarries too, and went through the same process of questioning whether my heart or head was talking.. on the one hand, i thought that in the first half we were terrible, turning over time after time, and lacking basic ball skills, yes I know the weather was bad etc etc, but ...

enjoy lads I won't make it because I'm going back for the match!! WAHOO!

not an Ulsterman, a lady-friend actually, who specifically asked whether there were rugby matches over that weekend before she booked, and I must have got my dates mixed up.. so it would be doubly bad form if I scarpered AND lied to her (and into the bargain she's pretty fit!) Mike - I might pop ove...

Cack I've just realised I might have to cry off the munster match, as I've a friend visiting.. but I'll see

How about the Romania match on Saturday, anyone watching it anywhere? Presumably it's on BBC NI or RTE?

actually I don't especially mind going to islington.. Angel's just near King's Cross on the Tube map, but is that one of those deceptive ones where it's actually about a mile away?? just thinking about getting back into town after, piccadilly line looks quickest..
