Classssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shame the weather is so nice for once.

France then the Lions then outside for some fresh air.

What channel is NZ v Fr on?

It'll go down in history as Sizzling Saturday.

wow better get some cans in

The weathers gonna by hot too. Might have a few light ales...

Will the Reds put out a team?

If not the France and England games might be worth watching.

That'd be appropriately social.

Biggest question of the day. Have France been having a helluva secret laugh about fooling everyone in the Six Nations.

I'll be shopping in London with the Missis, but I will be able to watch Wales V Japan

If there's anyone like me without Sky and a local pub now down to freeview (as I discovered last night), then Rugby dump has some extended highlights of Lions (14 mins). Looks like that's as good as it'll get for me.

My landlord loves this......unfortunatly my liver and bank balance are not in agreement with him

If your all rugby'd out there's Eng v Aus one day cricket. BBQ cleaned, patio furniture re painted. Have a good wkend all...

If you want to see the full game I'm sure someone on here will throw you a PM.
Also if watching live isn't practical, go onto YouTube and search for, "full rugby matches". There's a channel by that name where some kind user as the title suggests uploads full games including the Lions tour.

Thank you...I'll try that.

9am, “Doctor No”. Break for a pee. I need at least three minutes to urinate. Seems to take forever these days. I never thought, when I was in my 20’s I’d have to push.

11:05, “From Russia With Love”.

1:15, “Goldfinger”. Strawberry Nesquilk, fishcakes.

3:35, “Thunderball”. Dump. Put question mark. See how I feel after the fishcakes.

6:15, “You Only Live Twice”. Tin of Director’s.

8:20, “Diamonds Are Forever”. Put the roast on as soon as you see the moon buggy.

BBC 1 Wales

Nice one,thankyou.

That day just when Dublin has its nicest week of the year weather wise.

Priorities Disney, you'll only burn anyway

When am I supposed to walk the dog?

Ah screw it, I'll just buy her a treadmill and tie a biscuit at one end.

Fortunately Mrs Bristol gave birth on Wednesday so an ideal time to get the little man into the best game invented.

Just found out I have to take classes from 11 to 1

What do I do quit? or record the lions game and watch when I get home?

Both thoughts fill me with dread!!!

My missus has just announced she's taking the little 'un to see her folks for the weekend......I should've won an oscar for the feigned look of disappointment I managed to put on !!!

Agh, another tough weekend ahead.

Japan vs Wales at 7h00
New Zleand vs France at 9h35
Reds vs Lions at 11h35
Scotland vs Samoa at 14h15
Boks vs Italy at 17h15
Argentina vs England later.

Then I have to drag my sorry backside out of bed to watch the JWC on Sunday, tough job but I guess someone has to do it.

After that lot you deserve a lie in, get the missus to make you some food in bed and watch some JWC, you deserve it!

Thanks mate, I will show her this post.

I don't think women quite understand how much the emotion and possion during the 80 minutes can take out of you, it's not like after a game you can pop to your feet and get on with some work, you have to get yourself together, take in what just happened and recouperate from the event.

And given tomorrow is going to be a marathon of international rugby you'll be spent, but because your a warrior you won't make the most of it, you'll merely roll up your sleeves and get on with the JWC like any super hero would do

I suffer with possion too. It's a killer.

Oh the Irony! It's spelled "Vietnamese".

You can't come back from a spelling mistake with yet another spelling mistake!
Your insults have lost what little credibility they had, if any!

come on guys, let's not do this again.

I've told the Mrs I'm free tomorrow as I'm in a golf tournament on Sunday. So tomorrow will be 6 am, Wales v Japan, followed by Blacks v France. Cup of tea and breakfast in bed for her and she can join me for the Lions as she is full on for the tour. 5 minutes doing the garden then I have promised to take the 6 year old out from under her feet for a few hours. So we'll be heading for the golf acadamy course with his little clubs and I'll take a few irons. Probably have a pint in club after and sandwich for the boy. Then its back home, 5 minutes on a few more domestic chores after receiving thanks from wife for taking 6 year old out; then I'll probably sit down to watch Eng v Argentina then I'll make her another cuppa at half-time.

It's important that you husbands and dad's out there learn to make these sacrifices on occasion as I won't be feeling guilty when I play golf on the Sunday

You gotta be prepared before shovelling and slinging the sh1t.

how on earth do you know about 7de Laan?

Loved it, watched it when I was out there a few years ago, the missus graduated from capetown uni, and was turned onto it by here SA mates, so when we were out there for a mates wedding she got me into it. There were parts that were lost on me though

At least it's not as bad as Samoa 2011.

You my friend are a lightweight, flaking out after the lions game! You should be ashamed of yourself sir

Oh believe me I sacrafice a lot as well.

My son and I sleep in the tv lounge every friday and saturday night. It has been a tradition since he was 3 years old.

I am so used to the couch while my wife sleeps cosily in our kingzise extra length bed.

She gets every weekend off and doesn't do any cooking, it is my son and I that either braai or I make a nice curry, or my famous pap and sous.
