Re: range rover evoque
So Mrs W Went to pick the car up this morning. The garage were not interested in us paying cash, and gave us a better overall deal if we went PCP. No skin off our noses, so we did. In no particular order : - they had omitted the agreed discount on the new price - they had the agreed trade in wrong ...

Sadly for Munster, runaway freight trains have a nasty habit of coming to a sticky end by going off the rails and smashing into a million pieces.danthefan wrote:Hopefully Leinster can keep it to under 60 but Munster have the momentum of a runaway freight train.

Re: The Put In
Is still ludicrous. Why don't they let the 9 stand level with the second row? The ball should be shoved straight down the middle of the tunnel. Getting "one against the head" is impossible now. The hooker these days is a third prop at the scrum. Long gone are the days when to play hooker meant hook...
