Hi Philip,

I hope you had a clear view across London from the Eye tonight.

Although I agree with your observation, the word 'tonnage' indicated a ship and then it fell into place very quickly.

Let's hope that John has a sense of humour!

Regards,

Caravaggio

Excuse me, but Scotland are in the real World Cup. They play their first game on September 10th* in the Rugby park Stadium, Invercargill. As they say in Glasgow, "The rest is just a pile of pish."

It always stretches the imagination when considering how "pish" could form "piles", but there you go.

* - That's 2011 of course.

Good morning, John.

I happen to be a rugby union fan as well and was in the Millennium Stadium in 2008 when Wales won the Grand Slam by beating France.

So, before you point out that Wales aren't in South Africa either, I can honestly claim that I could have played for either Wales or England at international level because I was born in England!

Have a good day.

Good afternoon Caravaggio,

That was indeed a good day for Wales, but probably doesn't match up to Cardiff Arms Park on April 12th 1969. That was the day I watched them beat England 30 points to 9 to clinch both the Five Nations championship and the Triple Crown. Unforgettable.

Hi Bees.

It looks to me that the definition of the answer is 'rib' and that the answer is within....
