I remember the one about the rat, but not the one
about a vastly superior rugby nation being walloped
by a bunch of no-hopers

i was referring to the one where the germans come and everyone is told not to mention the war. it's a lot like that here, except that i'm surrounded by germans (ie rugby mad kiwis)

my local team has lost pretty consistently for the entire time i've been an ardent supporter (about twelve years) - we've made it to the finals once since they brought in the finals system and got royally kicked by our nasty neighbours from across the bridge, who then gloated something chronic.
although we seem to be doing waaay better since i lost my precious scarf earlier this season. and i'd had that scarf since the early 90s. hmmmm

I have to try and defend scottish football against a know it all flatmate(who doesn't actually follow football,funny that) who says its like watching a bad game of fiveaside with more players. Unfortunately, scottish football is way behing the english, mainly beacause we just don't have as much money to throw around as they do!
I don't even like to mention the cricket. At least we've got an excuse there, scotland is not a cricket playing nation, our captain comes from yorkshire, so if we only have cricket in the private schools, how are we going to breed talent?
Oh well. Like the murphy's I'm not bitter, we lead the world in Caber tossing (or is that the canadians??)
