Ireland - France

[chickenfeet]

I've got the game from Croke Park on the radio. Yesterday's games were pretty rubbish but if this lives up to the hype and the build up it should be pretty good. If I had hairs on my neck they'd have been standing on end during the anthems.

I've been winding up SG all weekend, by alternatly asking "Why is it they keep on calling it a historic match*?" and "God, I wonder what all these good looking Frenchmen are doing in Dublin?"

* Not sure if the Croke Park thing is apparent from over there - Croke Park is where the gaelic games live, it's a big huge deal that they're allowing the rugby crowd to to take it over!

:D Good. I wasn't sure if that kinda thing would've been considered newsworthy anywhere but here.

Well I can't say it made the front page of the Globe and Mail but I do know my Irish history reasonably well.
