Rugby double header

Spent the morning helping my new workchum, Lynne, move house. follwoed by a massive double header - Australia vs Scotland and NZ vs Wales - at rugby.

Lynne, who grew up in Inverness and informs me that she is usually teetotal, knocked back a patriotic pair of single malts, but it did nothing to help her team's fortunes. The Kiwis steamrollered the Welsh - the Allblacks are well nigh unstoppable at the moment, and folk in the pub are starting to say that we might as well all hand over the World Cup now and go to the Bahamas...

Throw in the Aussie's win in the first Ashes test and it's been not a bad weekend for antipodaean sport, really.
