    I believe there are social media apps where one can enquire about local opportunities. There may well be similar ones for morris dancing and rugby.

    I'm glad I could help.

    So that's why so many men have mobile phones!

    Agreed. Wales played with great spirit and plenty of guile too. England, after a half-decent start, completely lost the plot.

    I wonder if that was the "foregone conclusion" that the expert on everything, Dr P Barry, was referring to in a previous Story post?

    I'm stunned! I really did not expect we would pull it off. As someone said in the press last week, this side have forgotten how to lose. Commiserations to England but they needed a plan b and were found wanting.

    I was sat beside the river Severn fishing near Welshpool with my radio beside me. Just as much excitement and tension, I couldn't believe it at the end, the commentator completely lost it when the final try went over.

    I caught two stonking big chub for the icing on the cake

    No, it was very much wishful thinking but what a great result, congratulations Wales.

    I was a great game wasn't it Pat? After a lifetime of watching football live and on the box I have started to get a bit cheesed off with it. The play acting, cheating and general boorish behaviour is starting to wear a bit thin despite Manchester City's current form. I actually went to a local rugby club and watched a live game. There wasn't a single questioning of the referee's decisions, it was great. I'm still not completely au fait with the rules but it was a really enjoyable afternoon out.

    Now I know most of you 'ard as nails Northern Chaps could not give a stuff about what you dismissively call 'Kick and Clap' but I am very worried about developments in he game.
    Like it or loathe it, it cannot be argued that the 6 nations is a treasured competition bringing together the Toffs and the Toughs to cheer on the greatest gladiatorial contest of modern timers. It is a game of the people and for the people. But now the 6 nations administration are considering selling the CVC. This is a death knell! Those asset stripping b*stards have destroyed F1 as a free to air spectator sport in the UK. Now, you might not give a stuff about F1 and thats fair enough. But to subject something as wonderful as the 6 nations to the same process wold be a crime against humanity!!
