Nice to see so many familiar faces gathered here…..
@ Blue Bird:
Oh hello there…
Enjoying England today…
Luther Burrell almost through again..
Lemoenetyd
Scotland got very lucky there… hands all over the ball…
@ grootblousmile:
GBS, we have experienced the wettest winter that we can remember.
It has been dreadful and still the rain it falls. Last week at Cardiff we were very glad to find the roof closed for the Wales v Italy game.
It was nice to see Wales win at home! 😉
Scotland lucky to have Nil…
@ Blue Bird:
Hi Carol, how’re you doing, this is my first day here.
@ Gumboots:
HI Gumboots…. If I were a fish, it would be perfect!!
How is life with you? Hey, what is this about you visiting London last month?
Lucky for Scotland there thought England were through for another try. Scots don’t have a chance here it seems. Also that pitch is bloody disgraceful, don’t know how anyone can play rugby on that. Was the same for when our Bokke played there just seems a little worse now.
@ Blue Bird:
Is that you Carol?
@ Blue Bird:
Hello luvvie.
Your guys are doing good.
Wat drink ons?
The Scots need to do something here or they may get a hiding as well as a mud pack facial each.
@ Blue Bird:
Went to Vancouver for six weeks… We had a short four day stopover in London… Attended the new year parade in pouring rain and gave the new year celebrations a miss due to the pouring rain… I mentioned it on Keo… Waited for your invite… but alas nothing… 😆
120 @ Blue Bird:
Hello BB how you doing? Hope well.
Think this will be the site for all now. So hope to see you blog more often this year.
@ BrumbiesBoy:
Hello Brumbies Boy, this is the best blog on a match day 🙂
You do need to be able to bring a good drink to the half time party, GBS likes to check we are all drinking!!
We also enjoy hearing about your biltong choice!! Perhaps a nice bit of roadkill or ‘Biltonged Badger’!!
134 @ Scrumdown:
More like a Mud-worm facial.
I thought they were going to treat the pitch with garlic and shit…
@ Gumboots:
It is ‘I’ 🙂
133 @ grootblousmile:
The Captain refused to come out and play in protest against the pitch condition.
@ Blue Bird:
Ciao bella, we have also had our wettest winter over here in Italy. Sometimes it seems like the country is in danger of washing away.
@ IAAS:
Howdy ‘IAAS’…. All good with me, my wellies don’t leak and I have a roaring fire going here!
Tea and fruit cake… Happy Days
@ Blue Bird:
I was telling my son in law about the late night laughs we used to have on Keo…
Robzim, Grant, you and the gang of washouts… LOL
141 @ The_Young_Turk:
What do you think is going to happen between France and the Azzurri tomorrow?
England v Ireland in 2 weeks time and France at home to Ireland later on will decide the 6 Nations this year.
@ Blue Bird:
Have you invited Rob and Grant over yet…
@ Gumboots:
Hey shame…Keo was a graveyard over Christmas so I did not check in much.
Shame you had such ‘trying’ conditions…. UK is great when it is warm and sunny!!
I bet Vancouver was fun, flipping chilly too!

Believe it or not, we only had three days of rain… It was not that bad really… three days of zero and the rest 3 to 10 C…
@ nortierd:
