I can hear Mrs Beoz out the front talking to the neighbor, wearing her Lions top before we head off to the game tonight. She's having to explain who the Lions are - Wales, England, Scot ......... oh dear.

.... and they had a few non professionals playing..... but the Lions have a big edge in the loose forward department and probably the front row.

Re: The Cricket Thread (...and other sport)
I'm exiled again!!! (I do actually watch the cricket, but I've just got back from a concert and have a headache, so OH shouting "yes" every time a wicket falls is not doing it any good.)
