A bit of nice news from Scotland

That was a nice start to the week Bags - thank you.

Anything is better than thinking about the rugby! Typical for Scotland to play well for once only for England to play better

Love it Bags Thank you. I wanted to be Marie Osmond when I was young. Only to be close to Donny you understand!

gillybob . I wasn't really an Osmond fan. I just thought this singing at Kilmarnock was lovely. People look so happy.

Gillybob - are you sure your feeling for Donny would have been appropriate for a sister?

Yes! Result! Floreat Scotia

Indeed, gracesmum! Haven't enjoyed a rugby match so much for a long time. But I'm not very impressed with the one (France/Wales) I'm watching now - hard graft but few flashes of brilliance.

Well done Scotland. 6 nations has rarely been so unpredictable. Except that now I don/t think France will win. It was a slog though to get a Welsh win. Bit of vengeance for the world cup semi.

What a gem of a match. I was leaping around like the mad thing I am...and Mr soop and Rory joined in. Congrats! A well-deserved victory.

All it needs now is for Ireland to win today and it's a Celtic whitewash!!

Bring it on, gracesmum

Ireland seems to have elected a genuine twinkly leprechaun as president. Run out of women to stand? Is the chap behind him his civil partner?

Brutal match I thought , in appalling conditions.

Messy, wasn't it? England have now found a successor to Wilkinson. Where would they have been without Farrell?

Every time I have been to Scotland it has just poured with rain.
My dog was born in Scotland and has never been back.
He probably knew what he was doing when he came to England.
I supose I should take him to see his country of birth again at some point but he seems happy to holiday in England or Wales.

I'm sure my fellow countrypeople are devastated that you no longer wish to honour them with your presence, Frank.

Hi annodomini

I will come up for a week with my cairn terrior dog and spend some money in Scotland if you can guarantee it will not rain.
I will need a hotel which will take scottish dogs.

Frank

But of what relevance is this, Frank? Today's match was played in Dublin which is in Ireland.
I assume you are merely being flippant when you say you will grace Scotland with your presence if fine weather can be guaranteed. If you are looking for a hotel which takes dogs, that should not pose a problem. I hardly think it is necessary to specify the nationality of the dog.
