I find the main thing with these plans is to not worry if you don't follow it exactly as you'll inevitably have **** days. Can be kind of disheartening otherwise.

When you "follow it exactly" does that include eating 2 packets of tayto and having a massive dinner?

Absolutely useless.

You've just trained them poorly!

I'm more of a stick than a carrot man.

Mostly cause I have sticks outside and no carrots in the fridge.

I'm late to this, am I right in saying it is fairly simple to effectively train children to provide a fry? How's their potato bread?

Impressive parents would have their children able to make potato bread (from scratch) from the age of 4 or 5.

mfceiling trying to convince us all he's the boss in the ceiling family.

He forgets that he told us all last year that he agreed to a birthday party of 50+ children in his house! :pac:

You need to replace the energy you used on the run, I mean they hardly expect you to do all that running on a salad. You should wash it down with a few Guinness for the iron

Should it take any longer would I be right in saying I should immediately blame the kids primary school? Perhaps march in and remonstrate with the teacher?

It's more important than learning to count, that's for sure.

Three branches of study really for my young ones:

1: Secrets of the Fry
2: Learning to read through the words of Ireland's Call
3: The collected works of Stephen Ferris.

Also Positional Studies, with a focus on Jared Payne and Ian Henderson

I have no kids so I have already taught all my sperms that Payne is a 15 and Henderson a 6. I'm taking no chances.

Next year we are doing Introduction to Henderson: Not Skipping Leg Day. There will be lots of brocolli and steaks.

Might be a bit too scary to learn this early. Hendo is definitely 12a

Started the couch to 5k last night. Anyone else done it?

Or what I'm asking is "how long til you get absolutely wrecked from running?"

Started a few weeks ago. After the first week I thought it wasn't that bad. Week 2 and I realised I've really been a lazy bastard for far too long

I am an incredibly lazy bàstard tbh. My work keeps me reasonably fit (12,000 steps today) but food, crisps, sweets and beer all contribute to my downfall.

I'm going to try and stick it out (relax pink fairy) and hopefully I will "unfat" some of my fattedness... (yes those are both words!!).

Mine actually love making farls (and all sorts of stuff really). I'd anyone could teach 6 yr olds to wash up though, they'd be on to something huge.

On May 28th Donnybrook Stadium will host the inaugural Dublin 7s Festival, where 12 elite international rugby teams will entertain up to 5,000 spectators with a competitive exhibition of 7s rugby, where sublime individual skills combine with teamwork for spectacular results. Some of the biggest names in world rugby will descend on the capital including professional teams from England, Ireland, Italy, Norway, Japan, Germany and France.
An elite women’s match featuring players from around the globe will whet rugby fans’ appetites ahead of the 2017 Women’s Rugby World Cup hosted by Dublin and Belfast and for those looking to take to the field themselves a 48 team graded tag rugby tournament will run alongside the elite competitions.
ASpectators of all ages will be entertained throughout the day by live music, festival favourite DJ sets, a family fun zone, artisan food stalls and for the adults a craft beer zone featuring Ireland’s top brewers.
Speaking about the festival, organiser Brian McDermott commented:
“This is set to be the biggest and highest profile 7s tournament ever to be held in Ireland and an opportunity to play witness to the best 7s rugby players in the world battle it out in Donnybrook Stadium. AIt’s more than just rugby, we’ve gathered the best in music, food, family entertainment and craft beer. Whether you’re a rugby fanatic or just learning about the game we have you covered.
Tickets start at €15 for general admission with VIP and corporate hospitality packages also available from www.dublin7sfestival.ie.

I wonder if this is in competition to Thomond Limerick 7s?
