Snow will have to wait - Torn calf

Well it's 18th Feb and still not been on real snow this season.
It has been about four or five weeks since I tore my right calf muscle (walking across the road after cycling home from work) and have been trying to protect it and have it fit and working again for the holiday (24th). Yesterday I managed to tweak it again, just as I thought things were improving.
It is nowhere near as bad as it was originaly but I can definately feel the strain.
I'll just have to find out how it handles once I get to Austria. Fingers crossed and here's hoping for a bountiful season at home once I get back. Presuming of course I can still snowboard.

Scotland 21 Wales 9, all penalties.

A bunch of us descended on Murrayfield to watch the 6 nations game. Amongst our numbers we had 2 Welsh. Although the game was messy, and neither side proved worthy, Scotland were triumphant and we could rub our Welsh friends noses in it for the rest of the night. The crowd sounded like the Welsh had us outnumbered. Indeed Flower of Scotland sounded a bit flat at the start.
The hosts outscored the Welsh three penalties to two in an energetic first half but as the game wore on the already low quality dropped further.
Rhys Thomas's sin-binning invited the Scots to score but Nathan Hines, Allan Jacobsen and Paterson all fell short.
Paterson's reliable boot built up a lead Wales could never claw back as the game petered out to a tepid conclusion.
