Coincidence - As we approached Tumbarumba, NSW, Oz, I felt the placename sounded like a washing appliance, as in - 'Chuck them dirty overalls in the ole tumbarumba mate an' they'll be good as new in a jiffy.'
Tumbarumba is actually an old aboriginal name meaning 'hollow sounding hills'.

Half time at #Twickenham. Neither #England nor #Ireland had set the tournament alight, but I expect few would have predicted this half-time score. Keep it lit ! #COYBIG #6Nations #EngvIre
