Subject: Wales 10 -Y Saes 9

To my eternal shame: Strung the 40ft copper-wire aerial for my short wave radio by 5-00AM Pacific Coast time. [Involved climbing tree in neighbour's back yard, and risking being shot at in the dark]. Listened to first half, and 10 mins of second half. 30 mins, an eternity to go.Decided blood-pressure wouldn't allow me to stand the tension any longer. Went for quiet walk around nearby lake, muttering prayers, making promises to God etc. and talking to ducks and geese. Returned well after Wales' fate had been decided. Had left the radio on, and the first thing I heard was a prissy woman's voice saying [and the words will stay with me forever], "There has been an upset in the Five Nations Championship." Ten minutes later I got a phone call from my father in Wales--"Did you listen to the game?" "Course I did dad, wouldn't miss it for the world!"
