Slambusters
This was the big weekend. Wales were playing rugby against England to decide who wins the Six Nations Championship. Wales are the holders. England were playing for the Triple Crown [beating the other three UK Nations] and the Grand Slam [beating France and Italy too]. Everyone always favours England... We [Wales] had to win by 8 points to hold the Championship and stop England getting the Triple Crown and the SLAM!
Friday night was Comic Relief night and who was spotted taking phone calls and wearing his Wales shirt?
And then on Saturday.... A record 1.1 million people in Wales tuned in to watch the match [total population 2.8 million], nearly 8 million across the country and we annihilated England by 30 points to 3!!! It was the best I have seen Wales play in years and it was a fantastic match, breaking many records. The players celebrated, the fans at the Millenium Stadium celebrated, a Nation celebrated!
The English coach is making a complaint about the referee.
We allowed ourselves a tiny bit of smugness...
Yeah, it was a great weekend :)
