And then we were six…

Hello! After a momentous and for some, heart-wrenching Rugby World Cup last year, it is almost a relief for fans of northern hemisphere rugby to see six teams get together for their annual tournament – friendly rivals and great sport. The first matches were played last weekend, including the Scotland-England Calcutta cup game, France and Italy and Ireland and Wales. I love the speed and blur of colours as the players weave across the field. It’s constant catch up but the thrill of the chase is unbeatable!  Here are my impressions:
