- No, I haven’t disappeared, I just caught a nasty bout of flu while I was visiting my parents’, so I couldn’t be arsed I really couldn’t be bothered I just needed to rest a bit and didn’t update my blog;
- Yes, they lost the away game 25-20, but they got the 1872 cup anyway, la la la la!
- Chris Paterson is still injured (and Matt Mustchin is broken injured as well. Oh dear.) and apparently not playing tomorrow against Ulster, and I’m seriously starting to worry, now, as the Six Nations Championship starts in just a month. So I’m wondering if he’ll be fit enough within a month, as a rib injury sounds serious to me. Ok, I’m not starting to worry, I’m already bl**dy worried. Not only ’cause I don’t want to fly all the way to Edinburgh to see Dan soddin’ Parks mess it all up as usual Dan Parks play instead of him (sorry, Mr Parks, you surely are a really, really nice guy and I even think you’re rather handsome, still as a rugby player you’re not my cup of tea. Sorry. Also, I don’t like your hairdo — I could overlook that if I liked you as a rugby player, but I don’t, so there you go.) but also because thinking Mossy is injured makes me feel depressed, really. I want to see Our Beloved Mossy run left, right and centre on a rugby pitch playing and kicking ass (and oval ball, also.) as usual! So please, Mossy, get well sooner than soon!
- Message to the person who got here searching for “Euan Murray Jesus” on Google: sorry mate, you got it all wrong, as Euan Murray is Krusty the clown, while Chris Paterson is Baby Jesus. Got it, now? (*)

- Last but not least, I am now the happy owner of a pair of Edinburgh Rugby socks — birthday/Christmas present from my sis’ (left sock for birthday, right sock for Christmas. Or the other way ’round, can’t remember, result doesn’t change anyway.). Love ‘em:
*** Fact: did you know that rugby socks are compression socks (or, at least, Rhino rugby socks are, so Edinburgh Rugby socks, which are made by Rhino, are.)? They’re soooooooooooooo comfy, and warm too. Happy feet!
(*) yes, I know, I know, Euan Murray ♥ ♥ ♥s Jesus. Me too.







Great sox– I hope the “beffana” didn’t stuff them with coal when
your back was turned ;-)
fignaz — they landed here after Befana, so they’re all nice and cosy, no coal! :)
I like your explanation for not liking Parks’ hair. You’re right as well, I criticise everything about him but his photogenicness. (Not in a pretty way, you understand. ;))
The problem about Euan Murray being Jesus is that a) we already know that it’s Mossy, and b) he doesn’t have a major festival named after him. (Yet. ;)) And on the subject of Mr. Paterson, I was coming to tell you that on the news last night they were showing training footage of Toonie at Edinburgh training, and Mr. Mossy was most definitely there, but then, he’s been named as a sub for the game on Fri night, which I was hoping to go to as a birthday present to myself, but the train fares are too expensive to get down in time, so I’ll be going past Murrayfield whilst they’re playing and staring longingly – which, to be fair, is what I normally do when I go past Murrayfield on the train. Or the car. Or the bus. And my, that was a very long sentence. Anyway, Mossy’s (provisionally) back! Yay!
P.S. Glad you’re feeling better now!
rugby socks prevent thrombosis too! :-))))
PS rib injury is painful but not too serious. and btw, good ole Danny Grewcock is injured too!! :-(
Since when is Danny Grewcock “good”? He is the epitome of all evil!
mistywabbit — hahaha! :D
well, if Fiore likes him… we’ll leave him to her! :D
Don’t! Say! That! Word!!! Not when I’m reading this blog please!
Seriously people. Should come with a health warning.
