England did Wales proud yesterday

Good Afternoon Linda <3

Not so bad Linda. Just nausea and tiredness. Had the jab in the left arm, but it's not painful at the moment

Other half I missed Jem :-D :-D :-D :-D

IRELAND'S CALL

Thank You Fly and Everyone for keeping our thread going yesterday. <3

The vaccination process was almost painless and it felt very safe in the venue. So glad I didn’t wait for an appointment with my doctor’s surgery now. I haven’t had a sore arm or the dreadful headaches some have, but I am very tired. I have been feeling very nauseous though. But then I have health conditions that could be responsible for that.

I had put the games on to record, and so I had to stay clear of the thread as I would have been behind you all and I didn’t want to see the scores ahead of time! Also I had to make dinner for J. He’s not too well at the moment.

Good afternoon everyone. I have both Scottish and Irish heritage, but more Irish in my direct line,

I hope you don’t have side effects from yesterday Jem, a sore arm might hamper your typing

IRELAND v SCOTLAND ~ THE ANTHEMS

THE ANTHEM of SCOTLAND

O FLOWER OF SCOTLAND
Match-day Version

O flower of Scotland
When will we see your like again?
That fought and died for
Your wee bit hill and glen
And stood against him
Proud Edward's army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again


Those days are passed now
And in the past they must remain
But we can still rise now
And be the nation again
That stood against him
Proud Edward's army
And sent him homeward
Tae think again




IRELAND have 2 Anthems that are sung at home games ....

THE ANTHEM OF THE IRISH REPUBLIC

A SOLDIER'S SONG
Soldiers are we,
Whose lives are pledged to Ireland,
Some have come from a land beyond the wave,
Sworn to be free, no more our ancient Ireland
Shall shelter the despot or the slave;
Tonight we man the Bearna Baoil
In Erin’s cause come woe or weal,
‘Mid cannon’s roar and rifle’s peal,
We’ll chant a soldier’s song.


THE ANTHEM OF THE IRU (Uniting the North & South of Ireland)
IRELAND’S CALL
( Matchday Version)

Come the day and come the hour
Come the power and the glory
We have come to answer
Our Country's call
From the four proud provinces of Ireland
Ireland, Ireland
Together standing tall
Shoulder to shoulder
We'll answer Ireland's call

Ireland, Ireland
Together standing tall
Shoulder to shoulder
We’ll answer Ireland’s Call
WE’LL ANSWER IRELAND’S CALL!

Bit like me Jem between England & Scotland but love it when the Scots win as OH so very England .
