6 Nations Rugby

Italy v England kicks off in Rome in about 30 mins.  Such excitement in the Ghiro household!!        

Not a great fan of the wobbly ball game, but watched a couple of games whilst in the UK and really enjoyed it. Think it's the excitement of the event and great for the game if it  can get uneducated none rugby people like me to watch and enjoy... Ok off to view the footie scores...    

Well we won, but a few stupid mistakes mean that Ireland may take the Championship; that's if they beat France.

Hold on who is "we"...     

As England won by a country mile I suspect 'we' is ........  

PS Ireland won (just) in Paris and are therefore this year's champions.  The prevailing feeling in Casa Ghiro is: Drat and double drat.      

Agree Ghiro. England played realy well. Shame they could not make up the points, but 52 still a good result.
So 7 a.m. tomorrow to watch the Australian GP, after a virtual full day of sport today!!

... well for heavens sake, where do you lot find time to watch these things...! We are so busy (do NOT tell INPS) trying to catch up and keep the garden going there is no way we could do so... Well ok, if we sipped the hour breakfast and same (or more )  for lunch ,then perhaps we could watch a little... Hope you all enjoyed it.      

Aussie GP starts at 07.00 tomorrow morning, so you can watch it while having brekkies    
Rugby, worked out just right today for watching, apart from the late anti-climax with Ireland

'07:00 what on earth is that!!       '. 
Count yourself lucky!  If you currently have the misfortune of being in the UK you'll need to be out of your warm and comfy bed and in position in front of your TV for the start at 6:00am.    

Fortunately we are back in Italy. It is peaceful and very quiet in the UK for us, but here it's better still, hence we arose at a barbarian 08:42 today... Well it is Sunday (it is is it not?).

The BIG battle today is a 2.30pm Italian time !!!
