This fine chap is Adam Jones, a rather good Welsh tighthead prop. Seemed appropriate with the 6 nations starting on the weekend.

I thought you'd gone native. You being in the wilds of BC reminds me of that little verse, "wooly bear so big and strong running amok with his trousers on."

Oh crap. I've just realized that this Sunday is when the American morons beat the shit out of each other all day and we've got guests coming over for lunch.

The problems is that two of them are Cradles. I'll have to put the TV in the garage.

Does anybody know when it starts?

Possibly not the only one!

Adam definitely looks the part. Good luck against Italy.

In the right light, there is a passing resemblance.

Allegedly, there was an incident where some "feeling up" of the host's wife in the kitchen took place, but that's in dispute. The issue of falling into the posh Superbowl cake had a little more physical evidence because the icing had to be removed on my nice jumper by the dry cleaners the next day.

My American friends tell me that they look forward to seeing the adverts in the superbowl. Those crazy yanks.

I know. I sometimes watch NFL, I'll admit, but the Superbowl is completely unwatchable because of the pace of the thing. This from someone who loves watching Test cricket.
