New Chariot Driver



Great to see us growing up as a nation in so many ways, but still, don't you just hanker a wee bit for the days of ginger mcloughlin and a try at twickenham followed by a mini pitch invasion of fellas from belmullet who had not been home in 20 years marvelling at how wee ireland could occassionally slay the entire empire...

yeah we've moved on alright....in the words of the great harry enfield.... "we is considerably richer than you" and as a nation i often wonder is it a good thing or not... anyone in Croker on Sat night would certainly see that we no longer tug the forlock...but we have also lost our humility...i hope we manage to retain the sense of humour...although i'm not sure.

Personally i'm glad to see the back of Febuary..... it was a difficult month in many ways and i loudly welcome the Ides of March..... my self belief is strong and i think it's going to be a brilliant year...i just need to get a bit fitter and a bit (constructively) busier and i'll be sorted
