On the road with Irish Exiles

[London Irish]

I saw from the "other clubs" thread, there was a few London Irish supporters on here like DtG and John Boy, so they might be interested in this little piece I did a few days ago on my recent trip to Parma:

Good piece! Dipped a bit round about paragraph five when you had to work in one or two references to the actual egg-chasing, but picked up again after that. Bet you couldn't believe your luck what with all the alternative riots/demos/olympic torch/Paulo di Canio action taking place right there, right then. Manna from heaven for a journo aye?

I think the FT needs to get a new web server, that page took nearly two minutes to load.

Good piece though.

Are you going to the Newcastle game on the 12th?

Up in the air at the mo - I've got Goldfrapp at Brixton on the same day and it just depends whether the people I'm going with want an early meet or if there's time for me to dash between the two.

Hardly a household name so I'm sure it went over the heads of most readers.

You chose a great weekend to go to Parma clearly, sounded pretty eventful. Did you enjoy the food?

I've got friends in Bologna and go a couple of times a year and recomend it mr enigma. Great people, a beutifull city, fantastic food.

Thanks. I've been to Milan and Florence and a few other cities, but never Bologna.

Next time Im in Milan I think I might go for the day as its not far by train.

Excellent piece, LI.

But this was a bit unnerving:

"... notable for some quite anti-climatic games with Welsh and Scottish teams."

You and your fellow provincials took time out to battle the ENVIRONMENT?
