One thing I can say about Manchester was that it was a great ad for English weather

And poor old Canada... beaten by the Injuns...

I know, The assies have had massive support for all the other events and the mancs loved them. As soon as it comes to Rugby though I'm afraid you're the underdogs

I didn't understand that either.
It was the only time I heard any booing, at any event.

Yeah, but we wouldn't notice that, or care.

C'mon, Gaz, we let that go the first time, but you're pushing us.

**Gary.Lowe** · Aug 5th, 2002, 06:22 AM

And Beverly Knight, Heather Small (better the second time round), Grand Master Flash, Top Loader, Dave Stewart and of course Will Young

Just been updated by The Fat program... apparently we had a bunch of no names there for the rugby... there just happened to be some important competition on over here at the same time which had more credence than the Manchester games

**beachbum** · Aug 5th, 2002, 08:34 AM

ps Should I know who Will Young is? Given that Gary has a Big Brother character as his avatar I am not expecting much

How does that phrase go...

A bad workman always blames his tools

Are you going to stand for him insulting your tool that way, Beachbum?
