I once decided to jump off the boat I was crewing into the Stockholm Archipelago one of the of the most beautiful place's I have ever been. It was June. A lovely summer's day. However the water (being glacier fed) was probably not much above freezing.
Something that I discovered a bit late.
As I hit the water my Testicles nearly came out my ears it was so cold. It was like someone had just kicked me in the stomach.
Note I said that I did it only once LOL.

It was, I can honestly say, the greatest single event of my life. ;D
Oddly enough I, being Irish, went to Ireland to learn Irish - I know it makes little sense but I live in N.I so I went to one of the Gealtacht areas to learn Gaielge from people who spoke it as their first, rather than second (after English) language.

Ok so i bet you are all dying to know about me. (aka Deliverance and Zenodius)
I am pure English, born in South Africa.
I go to University in sunny Scotland. Before that I was a royal marine Reserve.
Oh and Ireland were lucky to get away with a win against England.

Oh and Ireland were lucky to get away with a win against England. Cool. I have a cousin who was a Sniper in Four Five Commando and later 3rd Brigade Recce troop. I was in the 'wavey navy' for a few years whilst studying Aircraft Engineering in Sussex. Bloody good fun. And come on mate England did not deserve to win the Ireland game....we were lucky to lose by a point IMO. Too many school boy errors in those early games - but it all came good vs the French. Looking through this thread we have a real diverse selection of people on this game. Good stuff. I'm so boring ....I live in the good old U S of A in Illinois.....Mate never be ashamed of where your from.....I mean after all Deliverence was born in South Africa and you don't hear him going on about it (Runs and hides).

I approve Agrippa, England may have won one two more points, but if I recall correctly you could also give 6 more points to the Irish for O'Gara's missed penalties. Ireland deserved it, not England.
As for France-England.... **hiding under the carpet**

Hey there, I'm Cassius, or James if you prefer.
I'm from Australia, born and raised. My father is irish and my mother is part portugal. Strangely, I sound slightly european compared to a lot of other Australians.
I'm 19, finished with education and working part time at an office supplies store, the tech department. My day is generally spent with computers, printers and talking to people who don't understand either and act angry about it.
This week I had the chance to start working for Games Workshop, here's hoping they like my application and several years experience, it'd nearly be a dream job.

I'm happily living in Missouri where I'm a lifeguard and make stained glass windows on the side. During the summer I usually work on a farm. Almost done with school. Probably going into the ROTC while I'm away at college.
