Ireland - v Wales

[Noraq]

Am I alone in thinking that Wales will bate the bejasus out of us this Week-End?

[Philtaz]

I'd love to stay up the night until kick off but I start my shift officially at 7.30, plus the night staff will want to be away on time so I'm going to watch the first half at home then literally jump in the car at the half time whistle then dash to work (10 min drive usually, might take about 5 in the morning!) then watch the second half there.

I'm literally like a kid on Xmas Eve!

[welshlibranr]

I too hope that whichever team wins will go all the way!.....but am biased!.......really hope it's Wales!.........

[Philtaz]

Me too welsh, my heart obviously says Wales but I really can't separate the two and I seriously believe that the winner of this match could go all the way and win it outright, it's that close.

[welshlibranr]

well Philtaz, if we don't win, and Ireland get through and win, then that's the second best outcome!............

[Philtaz]

Too right welsh, I daresay the Irish feel the same, so neither of us can lose!

[welshlibranr]

Very True Philtaz!..............would still love us to win though!.......fingers crossed!.............

[Philtaz]

Had one or three sleep-inducing Buds, all to no avail. Too excited to sleep!

[welshlibranr]

had a couple of glasses of wine Philtaz, still wide awake!.........sure to sleep over now, and miss the match!...........will maybe try counting sheep, or OH coughs!............he has man flu!............going to be a long night!......sure I'll miss the kick off!...........

[Philtaz]

Miss the match? How very dare you! You'll be fine welsh, set the alrm to LOUD and get up for the game, sleep it off tomorrow afternoon.

[welshlibranr]

Philtaz, still awake, third glass of vino!......not sleepy, alarm set, but usually sleep through that!.............hope I wake up in time!........

[Philtaz]

Well done welsh! I'm gonna go to bed about 2 ish (sleep very little anyway) and get up for the match/my shift at 5.45. Will have a power nap in the afternoon though!

Just over 5 hours to go!

C'mon, let's 'ave it!

[welshlibranr]

Oh Philtaz, I'm not a morning person anyway!.........night owl me!.....hope I make it!..........can hear my OH snoring from here now!...........not good!.......and the dog's snoring too!........not at all good!.......

[Philtaz]

In truth the neightbours are lucky I've got to go for a kip because if I stayed up from now until k.o. I'd be in a seriously inebriated state by then and would make enough noise to wake the street!

I'm usually quite reserved and laid back but when it comes to rugby I become a totally different animal!

Less than 5 hours now! Not sure I WILL be able to sleep! Have set two alarms just in case.

[welshlibranr]

Oh, going to try and sleep in a few mins, the snoring won't help!......but will try!......where in Wales are you Philtaz, I'm in Porthcawl, between Swansea and Cardiff..........be crazy here tomorrow if we win!.........

[seekeerz]

god I hope not !! [love the avatar]

[Philtaz]

No welsh, North East, the civilised part.....LOL!

[welshlibranr]

Philtaz, am from North Wales originally, Llangollen!.........sure you know it!....

[Philtaz]

No way! Was born there myself in the Cottage Hospital! I live a few miles from there now.

[welshlibranr]

Oh!..............where do you live? my son still lives in Llan!.......

[Philtaz]

Between Wrexham and Llan, don't wanna be too specific on here sorry, like to preserve a certain amount of anonymity. Born in Llan but lived in Cefn Mawr as a boy before we moved as a family to Wrexham.
