Oh dear, that was drunk and exuberant wasn't it. I think I meant to say "Yahoo your brother, woo hoo rugby star, beware!" Or "beer!". Nobody knows. Woo hoo hangover!

Bring it on!!! lilvee January 28 2005, 02:16:02 UTC

Yay for the Simonster! (as i've just decided to call him, though i'm sure his team-mates have some charming nicknames for him already..)

Cor, congratulations don't sound half as good when you're sober..

I think 'Lovers' is the favourite. Better than the handle 'Team Gay' that he was given in his first term at uni. Apparently its a name handed down to an unfortunate first year every season. . .

Rugby players are so. . . enlightened don't you think?!

You must be so proud! allthatcustard January 28 2005, 06:56:00 UTC

Pontypridd is only a few mins away from here. I take it he'll be playing at the Sardis Road ground, AKA The House of Pain? Welsh club rugby is not what it used to be, thanks to the bloody WRU, not that I'm bitter at all, but all the same I'm sure the Ponty boys will give him a good game.

BTW, Gazimoff's sister plays rugby for England Laydeez. She also is from Basingstoke... Is a pattern emerging?

Re: You must be so proud! elgee February 3 2005, 01:40:24 UTC

You are correct, tomorrow night in fact myself and bloke will be making the epic journey down to Sardis Road to watch my hulk of a brother (front row forward) rumble his way around the pitch ( ... )

How did you get on? allthatcustard February 7 2005, 08:16:28 UTC

Sorry, but I've only just caught up with lj. Hope you had a nice time in Pontypridd and managed to find a place to stay. Last Saturday must have been a blindin' night out in Cardiff. I wouldn't have thought everywhere would be booked solid, because most England Rugby types treat the Wales fixture as a day trip. It's the Scots and Irish who descend en masse and fill all the pubs and hotels, generally. We get lots of them as far out as Caerphilly, because we're only a quick hop from Cardiff by train. How did your bro get on? No fractures I hope ( ... )

And this too.

Gruesome

Re: How did you get on? elgee February 8 2005, 02:10:20 UTC

Gruesome? Thats our kids mug shot you're talking about! Specifically third row down, ninth from the left. Da Lovegrove, or 'Lovers' as he's more commonly known (and, due to my big mouth, my latest nickname amongst my friends). My bro is the webmaster for the Worcester uni website, which is probably why there are no excruciatingly embarrassing drunken naked photos of him on it. Thank god ( ... )
