Kick Off!

It's time for kick off in Scotland's first match of the Rugby World Cup, so it's only right that I post the Scottish anthem: Flower of Scotland. Of course, it's completely coincidental that it should be from the Grand Slam decider in 1990. And we all know what happened then...



It's nice to hear the late, great Bill McLaren's voice on that clip too.

I miss Bill and I miss those short shorts.
It's also nice to see all the players singing unlike their football colleagues who rarely join in it seems.

'fraid you're wrong, Andrew. We don't all know. So what DID happen in 1990?
(My, those shorts are SO short one wonders why they bothered to wear any at all!)

And I always though a 'Grand Slam' was something to do with playing cards! ;-) (Methinks it's time to move on now).
