EN GA LAND!

Swing low sweet chaaarrrrriot (FYI thats what they sing in the stadium)... So the last couple of weeks have been chock full of international rugby. Given that this is England and rugby was actually invented here you would think they would be relatively good... well thay might be better than US (even though last year in the Workd Cup we only lost to them 10-17... kind of a victory in itself). And seriously, when the weather this cold and grey... grey should be the national color of England, forget St. George's Cross (red cross on a white field), the national teams should were all grey.

But back to the rugby. England spent the last three weekends getting hammered by other teams, 6 - 32 NZ, 6 - 42 South Africa (won last year's World Cup, worst loss atTwickenham (home field) and 14 - 18 Australia. So its been pretty amusing and entertaining.


Work has been fairly quiet, I am heading off to Glasgow and some other towns across England in the next month or two... still trying to score a client to send me overseas but not really my choice. But all in all it is going well for me. However the troubled economy is causing all kinds of issues. Loads of sales, people losing their jobs and all. I also caught up with a friend of mine I met in Australia who lives in Prague. So thats on the list of places to go see too. Again I still havent taken many pictures...
