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
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
IMG_0340

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
or
or
and
throw back a
few pints together


and call it a day.
