Anyone know a priest or minister that can do the job for the site. Even Kel & rus have stopped looking in! BTW - got a mate who has just taken up a professorship in a uni at Manchester. Can anyone suggest a local beer worth trying???

Plenty of good beers - tell him to look out for Timothy Taylor's Landlord - probably my favourite beer when properly served from the cask.
Jeez......I miss proper beer drawn from a cask........

As for this site - who knows. The recent 'RL world cup' thread created a bit of a stir - maybe there's hope for the site to kick on?
I'm posting less because I became a Dad a few months back (feeling pretty smug about it too) but it does mean less time to sit in front of a PC!

Had a look at your album Kier. Handsome baby. Congratulations! You've a long path to tread. I have 3 - a daughter 18 & 2 sons, 11 & 15. The boys both play rl for Nelson Bay which will undoubtedly meet with rus's approval. Maybe your lad will grow up to be an ALL Black!

Good to see rus. Dragons touched the Broncs up a few weeks back. Had to get that off my chest after the soo. Coach Brown unfortunately still survives. Brisbane's going to have quite a cleanout this season. Salary cap must be popular!

It was like an ice-pack through the heart Baz :lol: BTW how did you go during the recent bout of wet weather - any dramas? Kieron is that an amber fluid you are drinking?

Yep -it's lager. I'm not against a good lager (I've certainly drunk enough) but we needed some beer for the photo..........and I can assure you what we're drinking there wasn't good :-(

Well - that makes three of us then...... Make that 4 of us. Although I've just moved house and the internet is now both slow and intermittent. I used to drink Boddingtons when I lived up north - am told it's not up to much these days though.

In the cask boddington's was ok - but I think it's almost exclusively served from a keg these days........shame. Apparently Tetleys' has gone the same way? Globalisation doesn't help the traditional british ber industry - that's for sure.
Anyway - good to see at least 4 here - does that officially make it a resurrection?

Make that 5.
Busy with work....and the bastards have banned most rugby websites, so I pop in here from time to time.
Also have baby number one on the way. A little lad due in late oct early nov.
Any tips, Dads?

Most people think they're experts on bringing up kids because they've had kids themselves.........soon after your 12,863th piece of conflicting information - you'll realise that what you're doing is fine :-)
Enjoy it - it's fantastic
(teachers are acutely aware of the above phenomenon - many people consider themselves experts on education because they once went to school!)

Having raised 3 to the ages of 11, 15 & 18 so far quite successfully. One thing you can successfully say is life will never be quite the same & for all (mostly) good reasons. No more watching tv in the nude though! {quote]Enjoy it - it's fantastic{/quote] Sure is. Took my lads to watch the Knights vs Dragons game last year & the youngest came away wearing a St George scarf & is now a dedicated Dragons fan! Watching them progress through life is a buzz. I really enjoy taking them to rl & watching them play. The 15 year old plays 2nd row & in last weeks game which they won made 30 tackles. Not a bad effort. You're not wrong there Kier!!
