for once (and only once) will I say 'GO THE FRENCH!'

world champions indeed. I wish they'd start behaving like it

Yet again this post has been revived. I wonder why?

Oh yeah - WE BEAT THE FROGGIES IN FROGLAND wooooohoooooooooo!!!

France 18 - Wales 24

What a brilliant comeback by the Welsh, following a rampaging first half by the Frogs. Wales came onto the pitch in the second half a different team, scoring 2 tries in about the first 10 minutes. Well done to the boys. Real calon (heart) as we say back home.

Wales are now top of the table with a 3 out of 3 winning streak, and have a real chance of winning the 6 nations championship.

I wonder if my living in Wales all those years put a jinx on the team :spudwhat:

Credit where credit is due Gav, you're right. Henry and Hansen instilled a professional attitude and approach to playing the game in Wales. Up until that point the game was still played by overweight guys that liked nothing more than getting pissed after training and after matches, and after anything else as a matter of fact. We struggled to shake off that mentality and attain a decent level of fitness, while the rest of the world embraced professionalism.

Graham Henry is a legend in my books, and it's now up to Mike Ruddock, a coach I had the pleasure of playing for in my younger years, and one I really rate, to carry on the good work. Which he is obviously doing very well so far.

You need to be taking a little Brewers Yeast with that :sneaky2:

Oh don't get me going with Brewer's yeast (ba doom cha!)

Seriously though - I had a friend go to another guys house for a wee drop of home brew... the yeast wasn't completely dead (or something like that) and 1/2 way home his guts started bubbling.. and bubbling and he had to stop the car (country road... at night)... drop his tweeds and run... and boy did he run.

Reckon's it's the best weight loss treatment he's ever experienced and it means you have to drink beer too...

I'm not sure if there is a downside to it though...

**Sniper** · 15th March 2005, 14:20

So what sort of yeast is this and where can I get it?

I understood it was any yeast, just so long as it stayed active in the beer. It's normally killed off during the process (so I understand...)

Be a great way to sabotage someone's party - bring a couple of dozen stubbies of that along and hand 'em out !

HOO AAAAA.

They'd be like little human handgrenades...
