Subject: Great day

I couldn't get a ticket and ended up in Edinburgh with a pile of English friends from University.

Got into a pub that was showing the game late and asked a local for the score. '10-9', he replied in a thick Scottish brogue.

Given how poop we were at the time, I was delighted that we were only losing by a point. He then explained that in fact it was us in the lead. My friends' faces dropped. I whooped in excitement and then we settled down to watch the second half. I remember Bayfield being held up over the line and almost constant pressurte on our line, but us holding out.

Fantastic.

I was grinning all night and remember the following converstation taking place on more than one occasion.

"..and what're ye looking sae happy aboot??"

"We f'ing won today - beat the English 10 -9"

"Have a dram"
