I work with geniuses. Geniuses are very intelligent, however intelligence is only really good for getting you into problems. Common sense is considered a swearword where I work. I can't afford to live where I live. I need a hug.

Come back Dan, your club needs you...
Played rugby this afternoon, on the bench for the second team. As seems to be the traditional can't-organise-a-pissup-in-a-brewery moment we discovered we didn't have a referee. Well, discovered is a bit of an overstatement, it got to kick-off time and he hadn't turned up.
I spent the first half, and most of the second half watching our game (being refereed by one of their players) and the third team game going smoothly and without any problem. We lost to Shire Hall, the thirds won 81-5 against Abingdon 2nds. Oh, and the first team won as well.
I really would rather play for the third team than the second team, the second team strikes me as being to Rah (Dan'll know what I mean, although probably no-one else will) whereas the third team epitomises the age-old traditions of Course Rugby (I'll lend you the books) but I can't see the point of turning up for a game (that kicks off at 3pm) at 1pm. I know we front-row forwards aren't terribly bright, but even we can manage to tie our bootlaces in less than two hours...

The 2nds may be too "Rah" (and I completely agree - I know what you mean as well), but the thirds have Latimer in charge, which puts them right down the list of desirability in my book. Now the 4th team - that is something different. We played Harwell 2nds/3rds this weekend and narrowly beat them (10-5) but all had a jolly good laugh. Any team in which I can be not too far out of place on the wing and can almost score is damn fine by me!
