I'd be very surprised if anyone ran into you seeing as you're so easily visible; "sorry ref, didn't see you there" wouldn't cut the mustard really, would it!

curious where in the CBS sequence the photo was taken.

And the black flanker nearest the camera ... must be an optical illusion but I'd swear he is in bare feet :wtf:

that shirt will be perfect for your trip West to Zummerzet :wink:

Well it was cold enough there on Saturday, but the clear blue sky stop any white stuff!

I wonder if FlipFlop has boots to match his shirt?

Not sure when it was, I would guess it was during the short period of uncontested scrums, in which case I don't care about the strange sequence, and normally insist on BR fully bound before CBS, and the heights are all wrong. Either that , or I had just blown the whistle and was getting them to stand back up.

As for the bare feet - hadn't noticed that - that is quite a good illusion.

Actually got "hit" twice. Once probably my fault (wrong place), the second probably not my fault. Same player. Warned captain that 3 times was deliberate, and that would be a red card, and I am easy to see. Didn't happen again.....

I think twice might have been pushing it.

Wonderful weather, I had a dry game but it was blooming cold. Need to invest in some warm, thin gloves I think.

We have pink shirts this year with black shorts and socks though I have my own pink socks which I wear!
As for gloves I have fingerless ones and don't car what anybody says. Without them there are games where I would not be able to hold the pencil to mark the scorecard.
