DH is half Welsh, and DS likes to think he is more than a quarter Welsh on days like today. They did well.

I'm fully English. Wondering what the quarter finals will bring!

My nerves are utterly shredded
DH claims that living here for 27 years makes him Welsh
Until the next England game HmmGrin

We are Welsh and there was a lot of yeeeessssing , neither of us live there anymore but even so.

The other day I noticed as we were sitting waiting for a meeting that Wales were up , and exclaimed happily and I got the response that the others didn't even know Wales had a rugby team!!

I need an award for my self restraint 😂😂

My 5 year old who soaks up everything like a sponge is now asking what some words mean 😮 and I’m quite enjoying his squirming

She loves it there, embracing her welsh heritage and watches the rugby down the pub.

bruffin · 29/09/2019 12:19

She has even started saying lush

ageingdisgracefully · 29/09/2019 12:20

Very, very Welsh today. And proud.

Moonflower12 · 29/09/2019 12:21

I am! So excited 😆

Boobiliboobiliboo · 29/09/2019 12:21

DD and I watched in bed. Think I’d have had a heart attack if I’d been standing up!

(One of my colleagues has a close family member in the Welsh team - her nerves are shredded!)

hobnobsaremyfavourite · 29/09/2019 12:23

Watched it in the pub
But even I couldn't face a Wine this early
Needed a stiff drink by the end though Grin

Bloody brilliant! Alun Wyn Jones such a great captain, Cymru am Byth

Watching with a pint of Brains Dark seemed to ease the nerves in our house.

Nononononono33 · 29/09/2019 19:17

Yes! Welsh here - from the north, so my home area got a bit of flak on a recent travel thread (the one which listed places you’d never go back to!). What a morning - loved it...🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏈🏈🏈

Alun Wyn Jones giving George North a kiss is the image of the tournament

It was such a nail biting match! Oh and I'm Welsh!

BookWitch · 29/09/2019 20:04

LeekMunchingSheepShagger · 29/09/2019 20:08

Welsh and proud here too! It was bloody nerve wracking though; I seriously thought it was going to go hideously wrong in the last 10 minutes!
