Haha, yes, that struck me too. The other jarring note is "and other countries". It's the kind of writing you'd expect from a 10 year old.

True. And if you have an understanding of critical thinking, you will even know (for less trivial questions) not to rely 100% on what Wikipedia says. But I agree it's very often the best place to start.

I was abroad at the time of the Glasgow QF in April, and wasn't following the detail. Is their high level of change to this week all explained by injuries back then, or did they travel a little light?

Ross has been a fantastic servant to Leinster. 50 European appearances is a big number for someone who never established himself as the #1 outhalf. He's been doing this for a long time now. It's worth pointing out too that many of those 50 were as a starter.

Many thanks to you and @maxrushden.bsky.social for all the lovely podcasts. I'll admit I had started to believe there never was a Nish Kumar episode. Perfect way to close out the season (but you're right, not as an opener).

Rathmines?

@davidolusoga.bsky.social Just finished watching your "A House through Time". Wonderful story telling and tracing of history. Thank you.
