  • We had the Ireland/Italy match on, too. OH and I both went to sleep. He woke up with a start and asked, 'Who won?' 'No idea', I said. He's now trying to stay awake for the England/Wales match, but was working last night so will probably fail. He's nearly 70!

    I am definitely going to stay awake.  Rugby is the only sport I am interested in watching.  Not that good on the rules but, who cares.

    Aaaargh! have just realised from reading above that it's near the end of the financial year and I have to do the year's accounts. It takes about a day and a half. Once I start I almost enjoy it; it's just getting started that is so painfulimage

    Every year I vow to do it as we go, and for a start, I do, then the summer comes and so on.

    Turned the sound down on the TV as I couldn't bear it anymore.  Your husband, if he stayed awake GG, must be over the moon. 

    Have managed to unscrewed some of the receipts.  Son will insist on stuffing everything in a Terry's Chocolate Orange tin and then brings it down after 6 months. So organised.  Does use a Commercial Card when he thinks about but I have to go through everything as he often forgets.  Then, the dreaded spreadsheet.  Perhaps tomorrow.

    Been wet and cold today, so what's your excuse Artjak! image

  • Well, even I enjoyed the Wales/England match! Great rejoicing in Wales tonight! imageimageimage

    Thought both the singing and play was magnificant.  Well deserved win. Congrats GG.  Always love to hear the Welsh sing. Grovel, grovel. image

    Would have been hard to sleep through that game GG image

  • Very generous, Tina!  image Didn't understand most of it, to be truthful, but it had its exciting moments. My half-Welsh grandson is living up England way but is rejoicing - secretly, I should think!
