Reggie the Randy Rugby Rover

Yup!

I

miss

Toulouse!

He was just a get- along

kind of car

but

Reggie

and

me..

we are

working it out

and

doing some time together

...

trying to

tell each other

when there is a problem

like

F

with the engine light on

means

you didn't screw the gas cap on right

and

air is either getting in

or getting out

and

beeping

means

we are

too close

to

something

and

you don't want to

drop your purse

on the

button

that

lowers Reggie

because

the

bell rings

and you have no idea why

and

it

just keeps

ringing

and

ringing

and ringing

but

cruise control

rocks!

and the

big

windows

are wonderful!

and

F O U R

D O O R S

are the best

The

big

space in the back

holds

massive amounts

of

Costco

toilet paper,

food,

cleaning supplies,

paper towels,

dry cleaning

and other

STUFF

for Petit

and home

the best!

Reggie,

you know he is British,

and

I went

to see

Andrew

play

rugby

(Brits love rugby)

Andrew

loves

Rugby,

too!

He

was playing in a

SLO Rugby vs Beaumont Rugby

match.

If you have

EVER

watched rugby

you

will

know

that it is

very

cOnfusinG

and has

a language

of it's

own

They use words

like

RUCK

SCRUM

HOOKER

TRY

22 METER LINE

INFRINGEMENT

and

other

incomprehensible phrases

...

what

do they all mean?

I

don't

know!

That's Andrew quaffing water

Rugby

appears

to be a

combination

of

American football and soccer

and

other things

Men

(or women)

lift their teammates

up by their shorts

no doubt

causing

quite a wedgie

and the

other

teammate

throws

the ball up

to

him

or her

Andrew played

hooker

at this match

(No,

I am not proud

that Andrew is a hooker)

he

threw

the ball in

and

off

they

ran

For

some

reason

it is decided

that a scrum

is needed

...

loud noises

and

a massive

mess of players

cause

the rugby

ball

to

pop out

from the scrum

and

off

they

run

scrum

It

was

all quite

fun

and exciting.

I

don't think SLO won,

because

I heard

'"Good game!"

- What is automatically said to members of the opposing side at the conclusion of the match. Whether or not it was a satisfactory game is another matter entirely.'

all

was

well

because

the

beaten

battered

and bruised

players

all

go

to

McCarthy's

or

Bull's Tavern

or

Frog and Peach

and

throw back a

few pints together

and call it a day.
