Six Nations

What a fantastic start to 6N. Well done Scotland! Wiped out by the Irish scrum in the first half but countered with far more imagination and accuracy with ball in hand. And then to come back after being battered in the second half - just great!

England's "finishers" saved their bacon this time.

Most fortunate to beat what was, in truth, a vulnerable looking French side.

Things can only get better.........

However, 15 straight wins is pretty impressive - although I don't like this "winning ugly" any more than the England coach does.

Wales at the weekend with "them" at home.

A small wager, Colwyn? Say a fiver to a charity of our choice - and I'll give you the draw.

Scotland looked good for their win. Solid defence and looked pretty dangerous when going forward.

Fair enough, though I won't be in UK to watch the match!

Lucky man, Colwyn.

Hope you're somewhere warm.

I'll be at Brixham Rugby Club (coldest, windiest place in the world) hoping beyond hope that we put on a strong show.

The intention is to be on a plane flying to Madeira m'dear. I have one of those birthdays with a zero on the end that people make a big fuss about and Hilary insisted we had to do something to mark it.

Enjoy, ma biddy.

Coincidentally, that's my chosen destination for early next year  - having won the free flight from Jet2.

Going in February 2018. I've booked Hotel Sao Francisco but not a clue what or where that means!

Taking pot luck. Never been to Madeira.

I'll seek your advice regarding places to visit.

However - it is Calis in May this year. I had withdrawal symptoms.
