England lost! Sad Though they were the second best side I thought so I'm not too grumpy. Wasn't a brilliant game though.

Yes in hindsight we were the underdogs. The quality of The Springbok side was rather too much, especially that Montgomery person. Wasnt he the one who gets quite raffled if peeople pulls his hair. I think he looked the rather vain type. In rugby to!!

Well I've just given the rose, dumbo aardvark and pussy-cat a good shaking to wake them up.

Percy is my Hero!!  Yes, far too good looking for a Rugby player but you just can't stop looking at him.

But my Grump.  It was a thick frost last night and freezing fog this morning.  So I thought I would turn the central heating on for the first time since March.  The pump is siezed up (as it always does after a long switch off)  and my usual trick with a 3mm screwdriver didn't work. 

So here I am, with a jumper, fleece, dressing gown, thick socks and a hotwater bottle.  Now, what a glamorous picture that is and quite enough to take your mind off moderation issues and England's defeat!

Have you tried kicking the pump? It might do the trick and it would certainly give vent to your frustration. Multiple kickings would, of course, warm you up wonderfully .... Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

Well he'll do for me!  What a gorgeous man.  I'm sure dear Mary wouldn't have been bored with the rugby if she'd set eyes on him.  Wowzers!!! All the men are jealous though.  You should have heard them here (we had a houseful) when he was pushed over the barrier and into the camera.  Not nice.   Grin

I'm sure I would! Thank goodness it's over. Sorry, rugby fans, but muddied oafs (in Kipling's words) are not for me.

Muddified definitely.  Oaf very possibly.  Physique from heaven - great face, lovely hair.  I suppose it depends what presses your buttons.  Let's face it, he wouldn't have to talk about anything would he?  Wink   <naughtymillyemoticon>

P.S.  Rugby is the ruffians' sport played by gentlemen unlike football which is the gentlemen's sport played by ruffians!

I thought it was rather funny when the England player pushed old Percy M over the camera.  Best part of the match. Me and my wife laughed our heads off when that happenend.

Believe me, I've known some real ruffians who play rugby  Smiley Smiley Smiley .

This one, about whom I know nothing except what's been said, definitely doesn't do a thing for me.



On the other hand, I had a Welsh boyfriend once who was rather nice, wrote poetry and had a lovely tenor voice. The only time I've ever been to a rugby match was with him.

Ditto (Welsh, nice, used to play lute). An uncommonly gentle man who (AFAIK) still lives alone with his cats.

Well, I have a grump today - I've lost my mobile phone, probably in a taxi.  I've tried calling it - no answer, of course...

Ho-hum and an elephant's bum.

Are we allowed to say "bum" at the moment?
