That and way too much cider again. I've spotted a pattern developing here so the cider needs to get knocked on the head before I do.

Made me laugh mate and cheered me up your post did
If we all looked into our family trees us brits are the biggest mongrel race on earth so when people go on about proud to be this and that it makes me laugh.

Proud to me a big mixture

It was a good night, barring the whole not winning thing. The pub was absolutely rammed, with all sorts of people in. Must admit, I really got into the game and was screaming at the telly like you wouldn't believe when they disallowed the try.

A beer or 2!!!!! I was taught a valuable lesson last night - Don't even try, 'cause there'll be ABSOLUTLEY no keeping up with Ping when he's in the mood. Fair play to our feathered friend though. With about 8 mins to go last night, and with the pub resigned to defeat, who should be belting out a "swing low" at the top of his voice in an attempt to pick everybody up? Well sung mate, even if a few of the words were a touch, errm, slurred.

Gully , couldn't agree more about the mongrel bit. It's funny how the mogrels are the ones without the massive amounts of genetic disorders. Just a lot of fleas. Off for a scratch and absilutely no more cider for at least ... hang on what's that in the fridge? No only kidding. Eddy Izzard got it right, cousins marrying...
I have no problem with people being or not being proud of where they are from as long as they don't use it to beat someone else up. My point was always about why is it that people automatically assume you are a racist just because you want to express pride in your roots. Mind if I was from Hull...no that would just contradict what I said. All the best everyone and tight lines. Woof Woof!
