ah lovely, shall catch up with that. not tonight. going to bed early to get up at 3am for the rugby.
this is an exhausting world cup.
Up at 3 am 
thats dedication.
Aww bad luck Scotland, pipped at the post by the Argies 
it was horrible so it was (not the match... just the ending). if only Chris's two kicks hadn't missed... or Parks' drop goal right at the end.
i never managed to get to sleep mind. so have um... extremely hazy memories of the other two matches.
Scotland could still beat England and make it through, England have looked dodgy and Rugby is a funny old game. I didn't know you were rugby fan Hitch.
just union. don't follow league at all... world cups and 6 nations are where you'll find me. 
hopefully we can.... but they need to beat us, if they want to avoid the all blacks.
I like the six nations too, haven't watched the World Cup yet but will watch Ireland v Italy on Sunday. I don't understand all the rules of rugby 
do you?
i hate the fact i am saying this... but the offside rule confuses me. so different from football. i know you can't go in at the side of a ruck. and i know you can't pass forward... that's all i really need to know i think. 
Hitch I didn't even know that about the ruck lol 
thanks
The ref seems to peep his whistle a lot especially during lineouts etc and I haven't a notion why Still enjoy the game though.
they can be whistle happy at times.
it's fun.. can get all shouty... especially since the next game is a wee bit later (our first match was at 3am. )
Yeah I'm a telly shouter as well. I'm worst when watching Ireland in the footie
this'll be fun. got a wedding reception tomorrow night. can't drink at it. Saturday morning get up, shower, start supernatural *ahem* acquisition, watch rugby, have driving lesson, watch supernatural, watch dr who finale, complain on twitter for hours if mark e sheppard isn't in it.
think i'll spend sunday sleeping
Thats a full day
Woohoo I lost 2 lbs this week already - must be the combination of exercise bike + extreme heat !
well done!
we had one nice day up here... then back to normal... by normal i mean torrential rain.
i also forgot merlin started back. and half past midnight i need to watch Georgia thrashing Argentina. *is in denial*
Sorry about Scotland. They've had terrible luck this world cup
ah well.. georgia tried.. they were actually over the 8 point lead at one point... shame it didn't last.
the choir were almost getting to the right tempo for flower of scotland too.
ah well... will be 6 nations soon enough.
Rab C Nesbitt is on tonight, with Richard E Grant This I've gotta see.
i wont be watching... it's weird, they still used the outside shot for the two ways last series... but the two ways has been a trendy wine bar for a few years.
that said.. the two ways has never been in govan so... lol
*pedant*
It wasn't great, its way past its heyday...
yeah... bringing stuff back doesn't work.
the 80s were good.. the rat episode, the west highland way episode (norrie deserved that headbutt *nods*) and the heebie jeebie.
The woman in my local chip shop, had the exact same hairstyle as Rab's wife well in to the 90's
it was a very common cut up here. *nods*
Well Ireland out of the rugby but in with a shout in the football A draw with Armenia next week and we're through.
C'mon trap door Tony!
armenia should be ok for you.
we have to beat spain and/or hope the czechs win. these sort of 'if and buts' rarely work out for us.
Thats a bit of a challenge - Spain are excellent
we need the czechs to lose! not win.
i shall be wearing lithuanian colours! *nods*
I got it wrong too. Ireland need a draw to secure a play off place. I just know this will lead to heartbreak [again]!
*chews on stuff with nerves*
good luck to you. *nods*
Bad luck Hitch. Thats was such a hard group to get out of 
Apparently the penalty was beautifuly taken though.
Ireland have a bad record at play-offs - think its one in seven 
.
we are just.... you know... always... *weeps*
penalty was ok, as far as penalties go. highlight of my night was ranting at itv sports twitter feed. "i don't care that it's his 50th international goal, he's still a bastard for scoring it!" *shame faced*
good luck with the play offs.
Annoying that, indeed
I feel terrible foreboding about the play-offs. However Trapatoni has been a very lucky manager so far, so who knows.
*crosses fingers*
my new discworld has dispatched!
hope it arrives soon.
Just ordered some stuff meself, for Halloween 
from Asda Direct.
ooh excellent. when i was in asda last they had these creepy talking butlers... was so tempted. what'd you get?
still no snuff... *glares at amazon*

2 skull candles

Those candles are frightening like something from a Black Mass!
*covets candles*
and everything else actually. halloween is my favourite holiday.
parents used to bring me back halloween decorations from America, some cool candles and a fiber-opic, cackling witch... who rocks completely. *nods*
Halloween is my favourite holiday too - love it more than Christmas I have such happy childhood memories of it too.
Also my maternal grandparents met at a Halloween party, so without Halloween I wouldn't exist!
Yeah Americans really go in for it, must've been great to get goodies from there 
.
internet has been patchy.. to say the least. not sure how long it'll stay on for this time.
i get kind of annoyed by the american tendency to claim it. until they start making their lanterns with the proper turnip in stead of the cissy, easier to scoop out pumpkin... then we'll talk. *nods*
yay for halloween and the rosie making!
on a related note, temps had a wee boy this morning, simon.
Aww thats great news, congrats to Temps!!! Isn't that her second babby?
Snap about internet problems. My BT line went down on Wednesday, [fault at the local exchange]. Simultaneously my broadband router died - had to phone Plusnet to get another one sent out, which arrived this morning.
Hope your internet problems get sorted out
yes, first boy finn is about 3 i think now.
we went down saturday afternoon until wednesday (local fault), then went down again thursday (not a local fault), back up friday night to saturday afternoon (not local fault, i figure it knew there'd be hell to pay if they didn't let me watch supernatural. *nods*)...
went down for a wee while after that as well, got virgin media coming out monday.. this has been happening the past few months... it's just happening more often and for longer.
apparently talk talk have had problems too... is mercury retrograde?
