Grand Slam's In The Bag!!!

So, not only did we do the whitewashing Grand Slam this year, a mere 2 years after we "won" the complete 6 Nations' wooden spoon, having lost every single match in the tournament, but our Under 21's team went and took the U21 6 Nations Grand Slam as well. I don't know about you, but that just inspires confidence in me, knowing we have a cracking youth squad coming up into the seniors some time soon.
The results!!

The first grand slam of my life time, and boy did it feel good!
On a side note, I actually got to watch the final game in an Irish bar called Hemmingways, in Carvoeiro in the Algarve of Portugal as I was working out there for the weekend. You can even see my hotel on the right hand side of the town's webcam.
Right, everyone have a cracking long weekend, those lucky enough to have one that is, and enjoy easter:
