Did anyone catch the rugby scores today?
Spooky thing happened last Sunday - I had three dreams (that I can remember) First one was the my wife would light the fire and forget to open the plate at the top to let the smoke out. Second one was that the nieghbours builder would get carried away in his digger and knock their house down. Third one was that Ireland would beat England at Twickenham (sp?) and go on to win the triple crown.
One Monday night while I was at work wifey lit the fire and forgot to open the throat plate, filling the house with smoke. Tuesday morning neighbours builder managed to put one of his labourers in hospital by dumping a scoop of soil onto a trailer while the guy was standing beside it - he missed - no major injuries, but close enough to get me thinking - Tuesday afternoon I was in the bookies - At that point it was 10-1 for Ireland to beat England and 28-1 for ireland to lift the triple crown - Given the other dreams I thought wtf, so I bunged 100 quid on them. ( I only bet about three times a year - lost 100 when they got beat in the world cup.)
As it stands Ireland need to beat Scotland to make me 28k
Can someone lend me some nails to bite?
p.s. - previous biggest win at the bookies was 30 quid when West Tip won the Grand National
- only bet on him cos a local was riding Think it might have been about '86/87

Fair play to you then. I reckon your £28k has a fair chance. Nice one!

You have to watch the match and video it if it stands to make you 28k!!! Ireland can't possibly lose to the Scots after they lost to Italy 
P.S. the next time you have a string of dreams where they all start to come through please let me know what the remaining ones are so I can get down the bookies!

if you look at the history of the game ,every team has 1 good game in the six nations. yes you can have a good game and loose . also the form book has been turned on its head by ireland by winning in twickenham . It sounds like your on the to a winner but never underestimate the underdogs, not in the six nations.

I still want the name of the bookies
Anyone willing to let you do an accumulator on England to lose to Ireland AND for Ireland to lift the triple crown is still worth a visit .
