Feeling a little less depressed now I have had a plate of chips an 3 lemon pancakes:j Food can be such a comfort in these terrible times:rotfl:
Feel the need for some tea and choccy biccies now all medicinal of course!

At least I did not give in to temptation and buy an overpriced ticket on ebay!

All you irish MSEers have a big drop of the black stuff on us welsh;)

What was that watered down Irish national anthem that they played at the beginning?

It's a good weekend for Irish sport....Bernard Dunne won the world super bantamweight in boxing on Saturday night/early hours of Sunday. Congratulations to him and to the Irish rugby team.

Well done Ireland :T :T :T :T :T :T




Nice threadage CTC, very gracious, you can ungrip the keyboard now

:eek: :eek: well, showing me your butt on a national forum:rolleyes: :rotfl: yep i have let go of the old keyboard, ..

in all honesty Ireland were sooooooooooo close to winning after 61 years... this is the ONLY occassion that i wanted wales to lose only because Ireland were so close, now if it was England it might have been a diff story;)

well done on the boxing too, not really a boxing fan, but i bet Ireland are still partying, or recovering...lol...

savour the moment.. as next year we will be back:p

Yep. It was a superb game and, being Welsh, I was supporting the reds from the very edge of my seat. But it's been an excellent competition this year and I'm really pleased for Ireland. You deserved it. We tried very hard but we can't complain and it was extremely entertaining. Well done indeed.

Isn't it wonderful that people can be so magnanimous especially rugby fans.


It was a great match but I couldn't watch the end of it as my nerves were completely wrecked.

OH MY GOD.

Still can't believe it. When Bowe scored his try I scared the be-jeepers out of my wee son (who at the time was sleeping on the sofa beside me - he is only 7 months old) poor we mite started crying!!

Would have loved to have been in Cardiff. I'd say it was mental.
Have always loved Cardiff as a rugby venue. have had such great weekends there in the past at the Five & Six Nations matches, (Back in my youth)

Great to see the Welsh/Irish comradiry is still there (All be it apart from those 80mins on the pitch)

(Can't wait till the Ireland & Wales tour this summer.. sorry I mean the Lions tour !!)
