I have no doubt I will have a wonderful time just being in your beautiful country: Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Culloden/Inverness, the lochs, Glencoe, and Isle. I'm beyond excited! But mostly about the rugby! lol I played myself as a college student and just after, so it is dear to me. <3

I'm an American coming to Scotland for the first time in March, and we have tickets for the Scotland/Wales match at Murrayfield, and it is the part of the trip I'm most excited about of all of the truly exciting trip we're going on. Is there a best pub we should visit post-match in Edinburgh?

These are my precise emotions ATM. Gutted for this young & inexperienced Wales squad, but delighted for Italy who've been working towards this point for many years now. WRU needs to get its nonsense in order & start investing in the system again. Who imagined this storied team would ever be here?

That goal, for all intents and purposes, has been achieved, or very shortly will be achieved. We are in fact at constitutional crisis.
