go slow

Not much jogging to report due to other time commitments and whats worse is that I am stuck on 196 pounds - 14 stone in English. However I did mange to get out with shorts and T shirt today and work up quite a sweat - I am not convinced this is spring though.
On the subject of beer I had a good pint in a Greene King pub at the weekend "Flankers tackle" as an ex flanker with tackle in tact it is appropriate. Good easy to drink bitter with very little sweetness - actually i think it might be a Ridleys beer re-labelled - it tasted quite familiar. Anyway about 4.5% from memory. I also had a can or two of Tetleys smooth flow during the game. I had forgotten it is actually quite a pleasant pint.
There was some very selective refereeing of the break down going on - but to be fair the Welsh perpetrators were forwards so they were a bit more streetwise and made it look less obvious. Good job Lee Byrne isn't Scottish though or he would have been yellow carded. Good English improvement but they could still have won. It shows that the English are not arrogant - they didn't havethe confidence to win.

So we are relying on France and Ireland to beat Wales for England to win the championship.
