I usually wouldn’t complain about scheduling but 2110 is an absolutely mad time for a rugby game to kick off. I’m already in me fecking PJs, for goodness sake. This is not conducive to getting in the mood to drink a ween of beers and to gulder at the TV! #IREvAUS

Ahhh, good. We’ve reached that time of year when the maniacs who bring whole watermelon to our house in summer start bringing massive bags of unshelled nuts, instead. Pain in the arse to get out; makes an awful mess; taste dreadful. What more could we ask for?

At long last, I have all the bits to make the train go at a sensible speed and I’m partially delighted in part in fear about how grumpy the #MiniPferds are gonna be when I tell them this now gets put away for almost a month until we get a tree…

Too many bloody Murphys. You're think of Ben. Jack's his 10-playing brother who's younger than Sam P and playing excellently for Ulster.

Some days are a lot longer than others, so I’m going to declare that I deserve this.

For the say that’s in it: a picture of #WeePferd’s stuffed koala that, to me eyes, bears more than a passing resemblance to a departing president.

As a neutral, my answer would depend on how much Wales are able to hold onto the ball. Genuinely decent stuff with the ball. Disorganised, and disinterested at times, without it.

I was so disappointed she didn't bite on that post. I had this made for her and ready to go and everything...

I realise it’s just lasagne and no one’s impressed with that anymore and all but even then, this looks like it’s worth every second if you ask me.

Ahh, no, do I need to break this out again?

Making my own pasta is definitely a bit of an affectation but it really, really, does make a huge difference in a lasagne.

The November internationals coincide with a change in the speed of our lives. We slow down. Move inside. Focus on ourselves before the rush of Christmas. Missed last week, to today is my first chance to sit down to a whole day of rugby. What a great excuse to make an eight-hour lasagne…

Finished. Speed out of control and I need to spend like €30 on more bits, which would usually put me in a bad mood but Lego train we got to go around our Christmas tree has a wee Lego train that goes around the Christmas tree on the one we got to go around ours and it’s put me in such a good mood…

Not gonna lie, genuinely very excited at the thought of getting to see a game of elite (or near enough) professional club rugby in a place like Amsterdam that's usually a bit off the beaten track for such things.

Plan for tonight: Built up the locomotive and coal truck, install the electrics, post a wee video of it merrily chugging around the track.
Reality of tonight: Built to the target. Speeds around at uncontrollable speed and flies off the track after less than two laps.
So… a photo, instead!
