The cutting crew

"I just died in your pants tonight"

Blimey rac, i am really sorry to hear that.

It's something that touches me deeply and makes me feel very sad (my wife has battled this for some time).  

I wish you all the best and my heart goes out to your family.

about that for me too Bou.

5'10 and 10 stone 12

neither fat nor thin but somewhere in the middle like the dull git that i am.

Cool parents Slips.

did you live at home then?

i couldn't (no uni's in cornwall).  Only have one parent and she was on disability.

She would have helped if she could but there was no way.

sob.   poor wickle me. only joking, many like me, it's just part of life.

longman : that was a rather lucky bonus i got in  marrying someone 7 years older than me.

she had a house already.  what chance would i have had of buying one yet?  not much.

The principle seems reasonable slips but for those of us who have already paid loans off (does that not include your good self?) it seems a piss take.

I am earning more as a result of my degree than i otherwise would down here no doubt but i am also paying more f'ing tax too.

I'd enjoy going back to do a phd.  I just could not afford it.

In 7 or 8 years i will hopefully be in a position where i might be able to consider it.

btw: what is the graduate tax?   I have already paid my bloody loans, why should i pay another tax?

too true.  i finished years ago and will pay mine loans off at last in feb.

only taken till my mid bloody thirties.

what must it be like now?

Luckily i did get a job directly related to my degree or else it really would have been a pisser,

maybe not..  maybe... today i really don't care.

and who did the running and scored by far the best try?

well after all the jikes etc..

WE WON!!

lol.. i saw the stats the other day.  England have scored more tries this year than any side in the world except NZ.

very informed.

Tindal has been picked to stop them being able to crash the Stirling Morlock through the midfield.

Agreed about Hill, best player by far.  we win win him; he is a silent assassin.  

My RRFC matey Vicks and  my other compatriate have a big role to play both loose and tight.  If they can stuff the aussie front row it will set up a great platform.

it will be great and we have a chance.

slips: kind comments indeed.

those who suggest they are dull have clearly not watched them in the last 4 years, they have produced some real try fests.

the difference is they recognise that winning has to come above style sometimes.

mikey , don't agree that aussie are that attractive.  did you see england against them in June. england ran in 3 lovely tries.

truth is both are good teams who can play rugby and tough it out if they have to.  should be great.

i totally agree that Johnson is the key asset though.
