Storm Ciara sounds like a stripper name

Sitting with the coal fire roaring and the conulls lit due to a power cut. It's a bit stormy now and the wean's wondering how he'll be able to sleep if the lights ain't on...

You associated India with the cup. Do you know anything about it?

Is designed by Indian workmen to represent both sides at their inaugural game in India. The Calcutta RFC then joined the Rugby Union.

Thought the relevance was clear to be fair

I know all about it. Just wonder what silver's comment meant

It or them?

Yes it, the Calcutta Cup. Am I not getting through?

1875 - original cup made and given to Blackheath Golf Club and still played for today. Thought to be same silver source as the more famous one.

1878 - the rugby cup played for today.

1890 - a third Calcutta cup played for between Indian rugby sides.

OK thanks for that

Shouldn't it be called the Kolkata Cup these days?

Mumbai potatoes too.

Beijing duck.

The wee Taj ers cup

Good morning & greetings from sunny Glen Falloch.

Phones, telly & 'net all down last night.

Wild stuff the Glen is South - North orientation.

So was Ciara - like a wind tunnel.

Quiet as a graveyard yesterday - even the Dafties stayed away.

Blowing a hooligan here - no rain yet though

That would be a Pointy situation.♥️

Mighty.

Admin was praising you on taking kids from poor and refugee backgrounds out in the hills to see mother nature and peace.

It was during a debate about Manchester grooming gangs and re-uniting families from asylum and refugee families.

Hats off mucker.

Yeah some now at ground level in Scotland Monday.

Winds dropping down to the 40's though.

I'm in Perthshire Mon Tues but low level forest track stuff.

Will defo be on amazing how much shelter the trees can give you.
