I hope the game doesn't go on if it means that the pitch will be ruined for the first few weeks of the season as happened last year.

Its not helped by the tykes using it as postage stamp size. I do hope if the game goes ahead that we have the full width unlike the tykes use it.

Wonderful - Leeds United are also playing on New Years Day KO 1pm - a mad dash from Elland road to Headingley is now on the cards.

Oh dear. Had to cancel my tickets and get refund as going to New York on Wednesday. So no rugby fix for me this Christmas.

More importantly rugby league supporters across the region should be giving thanks to the Rugby Union organisation Premiership Rugby for the use of their pitch protection facilities without which the NY day fixture may even have been in doubt.

I may do some of my famous giant vanilla muffins with icing tops, however I am currently painting...

Lets hope the pitch stands up to 2 games in one day.
Having said that the Rah Rahs will only be using the touchline .
Might be worth £17 to watch both games and give big Les a bit of grief.
Does he still play for Gloucester?

Cheesecake last night was a success.

Final winner was Bailey's & White Chocolate so I've got the rest of the tester to eat tonight, and a fresh one for tomorrow (which is more likely I'll have to share some of that one, otherwise it's not in the "Festive Spirit").
