Huge feet, Northampton Saints colours, finished 2 weeks ago but the lead for the camera dissappeared in DD1's bedroom
Just in time for the team to finsh at the bottom of the Premiership well its looking that way anyhow  |
Those are fab! Very cheerful colours - and he probably needs a bit of cheering up, doesn't he!
Mr A checks 2 sets of rugby results these days - Northampton as well as Worcester - the race for survival is more exciting than who will win!!!!!
edited to remove photo which I managed to quote too  |
We are now at the point where we don't even look at the top of the table
Never mind, at least we're still in the Heineken Cup so we're going to San Sebastien Friday to Monday to watch the Saints get beaten by Biarritz and soak up some Spanish spring sunshine-hopefully

They are lovely. It's very loyal of you knitting them too despite their placement  _________________ " Onen i-Estel Edain, U-chebin estel anim"

They're brilliant! They'll definitely keep his tootsies warm in the stands.
I have fond memories of travelling to Northampton to watch West Hartlepool getting trounced some years ago.  _________________ My Blog: Put a Sock in it |

Watch out, it could be catching (but not if you play for Northants defence ) _________________ Current wips-too many to list

Wouldn't mind measuring this one's for sure
Sorry got carried away, this is Bruce Reihana, Kiwi, Ex All Black, and now captain of Northamptom Saints, he was injured for 5 months and has only just come back to play but makes such a difference to the team.
drool, drool, obviously far too young for me and has a very lovely wife and kids but I can dream from afar.... whilst he was off sick, he was reported to have put on 15kg of muscle-not fat, muscle. Now even in my Race for Life training I'm struggling to stay the same weight and I'm up to running 2 km per day but it makes me really hungry how can you be off the pitch and only build muscle? _________________ Current wips-too many to list

Phwor, defo measure his feet.
What is it about kiwi players?
I kinda drool over Motu Tony who plays for Hull FC. Got a treat after last years grand final bumped into him and his brother at a service station I did offer to rub his aching muscles but he declined! Got a cuddle instead off him and his bro.
The boys (all 3) thought it was hilarious.
