    Chippy? As in works as (i.e. carpenter) or goes to?

    I had a nice Rissole and chips from Dorothys in Caroline Street on Saturday night. (Welsh will know it well). Does that make me a chippy welshman?

          You buy in Chip Alley and don't do the proper curry off the bone and chips? You total barbarian.
          I was introduced to that tradition by an Australian lass, I was expecting some nasty curry sauce and was very nicely surprised.

          As Dodgy has pointed out your bitching about having an English ref looks and in fact stinks of sour grapes, it puts your earlier comments in context and just makes the "anything but England" attitude look like a part of your psychology.
          The Scotts have a right to be aggrieved over a bit of dodgy reffing at the end of a storming game.

            This (and the sour grapes bit)

            I have perfected this recipe. The secret is to add a chopped apple to onion, madras curry powder, flour and chicken stock.

              Dunno what's in it, but it's pretty tasty, especially after a night on the ale which is in plentiful and varied supply in Cardiff, fine town for a night out

                World Rugby Statement: Match officials

                The icing on the fooking cake!!
                Just googled the French analysis of Joubert's handling of the 2011 WC Final against NZ.
                I agree with Gavin Hastings, never let him officiate a major match again. Damaged goods.

                  Something that no other Home nation will achieve in the foreseeable future AND we beat the Argies when it mattered
                  When did the English beat the Argies that it mattered more?

                      I realise you may have forgotten that England is part of Great Britain and the United Kingdom, but in 1982 it was not England v Argentina. In the same way that 1914-18 and 1939-45 were not England v Germany. The whole of the UK were involved in those wars.
                      The EDL, England First, the English National Front etc may try to convince people otherwise, but they hate Britain and the United Kingdom and hence like to falsify history to suit their attitudes.
