SOON GONE

Lansdowne Rd the home of Irish rugby is being pulled down at the moment (on other side of wall you can see the rubble). I played there as a kid since I went to the school beside it called Marian College. God I hated playing it on cold dark wednesdays in the middle of winter, being buried in the pitch by some big thug, ending up with stud marks in my back. But these days I love watching Ireland play the English and win.
