Cad is Ainm? Irish people’s names

20/12/2016 by Baldo 2 Comments

  Well blog, it’s been a while… Apologies to all those who signed up to long-gone rugby stats and are now receiving tedium on names.

A busy week for me, and a bit of a graveyard for rugby this weekend, as the Premiership takes a break ahead of the November Internationals, with only the Premiership and a few bits of silliness to keep us going (Australia and the Baabaas, US and the All Blacks), so another short post.
