    So, an area in which you've bested the mighty mongols.

    Do you known that the mongols took examples of all the worlds religions to their capital and made them live in peace, obviously my threat of extreme violence.

    I have decided to change the way that I deal with contractors. Before you all start wailing that I am going to put you and your families to the sword, you may appreciate the honesty of the man.

    The prospect of seeing Andy Farrell is the most exciting part of the forthcoming 6 nations. You boys just keep these players coming
    40 in a few days time so if I don't do something stupid now(again, surely? Ed) then I never will.
