Those of you in the diaspora are still cousins and distant kin. Mother England never forgets you, even if many of our remote kin do so from time to time. Just remember, Mother England will always love and embrace you. She still cares, and will always welcome you home at any time. In her heart of hearts she holds you close to her ample bosom, whether you are aware or not. Deep within the core of your being, she lives! And it radiates some of the goodness which you show people each day. She clearly sees the competition between our selves as nothing more than a fraternal scrap within the family, which have heppened throughout history. Families have kerfuffles ans scuffles. But still family we are. And in all, Mother England knows. And cares.

Our current steward and servant for Mother England, Her Beloved Majesty, Elizabeth II Regina, knows you and would love you to come home even for a short time to top up your emotional and psychological spirit. A pilgrimage to the veritable fountain of life. Elizabeth II Regina, has sacrificed much to ensure the children of Mother Engand recognise our 'oneness' and maintain and embellish these bonds. For eternity.

Fear not the ankle biters, they are the unloved or those who ruefully reject thier kinship. They go through their lives in their pit of despair. Without repentance, they will never transcend to Avalon upon the death of their earthy body. And mentioning Avalon, clearly Eden was the first attempt - not too bad from what i read, but it took Englishmen, true of heart, and in service to Mother England to create Camelot and then Avalon - the blessed resting place for all with Mother England in their hearts. I hear through the grapevine, Rugby is played there.................

Yeah you need to understand the English Dicks. This one, Richard III, was killed just because he assassinated his two nephews who were the direct heirs so he could become king - our king. Sometimes people don't have a sense of humour. Happened in Leicester, where hope usually goes to die......

Not sure whether you saw this, but this is how he was coronated:

Yes but a matter of a couple of inches and that flick wouyld have come off his studs and gone backwards. It was the fact he did it and juggled the ball to catch it at running pace which was so impressive.

It also took all the heat off Heaslip for almost coqing up such a promising position by not getting his pass away soon enough.

If he played for any other team than Italy we'd all be shouting for him to get off the wing and do some work. Luckily he looks good for the replays and scores tries every so often.

Taylorman wrote:Parisse was very poor in this match. Its one thing comparing players like Parisse to those like Read when theyre playing well but theres no similar call for it after this match. Several unforced errors, dropped balls etc.

Its not only about having great performances, its about having them consistently as well.
