Ah, Kate, the Welsh front row - all frizzy perms and beergut. No, :roll: not you, the front row!
Changed days from when they used to scare the c**p out of us in the 70s.

I'm glad you clarified that comment, Ewan!!
Also jealous of Paul going to Twickers. I've been to two 6 Nations games at the Millennium Stadium, one where France wiped the floor with us so skillfully that the Welsh ended up applauding them, one where a Scot got himself sent off inside 15 minutes and that killed the match; and I also went to the very first match between England and Italy at Stadio Flaminio.
I caused much confusion by obviously being British - but supporting Italy :lol:
I don't think Wales will be a surprise package on Saturday, but if I'm wrong, I'll come on here and admit to it. And laugh.

Back in the late 1990s, I bought a green rugby shirt that comemmorated the Six Nations Cup. I literally wore out the shirt out to the point where it was unrepairable. I have looked for a replacement but cannot seem to find one. All that I can find are shirts for the individual teams.
The shirt that I had was a straight-forward medium green rugby shirt with the emblems of the six nations on its left breast and with a white taped collar. Do any of you know where I might find another such shirt in XXL? If I can find such shirts, I may very well buy 3 or 4 to keep a few in back-up.

Its going to be great- going with my middle sons Morgan and Owen (Welsh wife)- who as London Welsh players (where I sort of coach) have -shall we say- mixed loyalties :roll: . Mog has a Wales shirt that he got signed by Martin Johnson ......is this a record?

Ave Hugh,
There is a firm called Cotton Traders which may do that sort of thing. Take at look at the internet and, if you can't find 'em, get back to me.
Regards.

Libitina, can you or anyone else tell me what those "embroidered logos" are? The shirt that I had showed a Thistle for Scotland, a Cockerel for France, a Wyvern (IIRC) for Wales, a Harp or a Shamrock for Eire and so on. In other words, traditional heraldic stuff.
Thanks, Hugh

Ummm, pass! I'm not sure what logos those have on the sleeve.
There's this one on Ebay which has been worn but shows the logos:-

You poor thing! You get 2 days in the sun in San Diego while we'll probably be delighting in the grey skies and damp drizzle that'll no doubt be back in a few hours.... How come I don't feel the least bit sorry for you? :wink:

Hi Hugh,
I've just got home from work and, looking at the Cotton Traders website, can't see the sort of thing you mean.
However, I'm sure I have seen them in previous seasons.
I'll keep my eyes peeled and report back.

And the famous Bengal Tiger, ever ready for a scrap,
And all his big battalions, Prussian Guards and grenadiers,
Fear to face the flashing bayonets of the Munster Fusiliers."
