My father is Irish and my Mum doesn't give a hoot about rugby, so I followed this tournament with massive support for Ireland, and I was walking on air yesterday when they won. I was at work, and basically spent the last ten minutes of the game doing nothing, just watching. Wales being awarded that last kick made my heart drop, and when the ball sailed just under the bar I was absolutely ecstatic.
Watching O'Driscoll lift that cup was without a doubt the highlight of 2009 so far for me.
That and the fact that Arsenal won 3 - 1 against Newcastle United in the Premier League and London Irish beat Northampton Saints 32 - 27 in the Guinness Championship pretty much outweighed the fact I worked a 20 hour weekend on pretty much no sleep whatsoever.
So yeah. Sports!
