thursday and thoughts of BOD..............

Cannot believe that BOD has been dropped from the Lions squad for Saturday.  This would have been his very last match for the Lions  - EVER - and while I know that Warren Gatland is the head coach and all decisions are his it seems decidedly disingenuous to drop such a stalwarth of world rugby (I'm not biased at all as an Irish woman of course) but it seems to me that he could have put him on the bench at least and put him on for a few mins towards the end.  At least it would give him another option if the team werent doing so well.  While I know that should the Lions win the third test match and the series BOD will be included in that pantheon of greats but if they lose it will always be a question of ' if BOD had been picked they might have done it'. He must be gutted the poor guy :(

More mundane matters in my own life are pressing however, and today I have to head to passport office to collect DS2's new passport which she needs for her Driving Theory Test tomorrow.  Best of luck to her, its her second attempt, she missed it by one point last time.  She is quite nervous about it due to the fact that she missed it last time, but hopefully it will all go well for her tomorrow.

Off to Molesworth Street, if I can get her up out of bed.  Teenagers !!!

Namaste
Marie.
