I go to the Rugby world Cup in Duabi every year, dont watch it or know nothing about Rugby or even if it is the same event mentioned above, but you get 24 beer's in a cool bag and drink until you wet yourself. Brilliant!

Topper was last year, it rained turning the place into quick sand, lost my shoes, ruined my jeans and had a bin bag as a cape last thing I remember was singing "you've lost that loving feeling"...

All sports rocks - as long as their is beer! :D

Surely if you don't want to know the result before you watch it, you should avoid TV, radio and internet?

If you'd avoided the internet you wouldn't have known that you had a comment and therefore wouldn't have felt the need to reply.

I think you're referring to the sevens tournament in Dubai each year. It's not a world cup!

Topher & Gaspode stop being so derrogatory about us females!

Yes and the next one is in 2009! It's not the annual competition that Expat-Dubai was referring to though is it?

i think bagpipes can be fine, just not at sporting events. more like parades and funerals.

I like sevens better than 15s because it's a lot quicker.

My favourite sevens memory was the Twickenham sevens when my team, Bradford Bulls, were invited as the reigning champions of Super League to play. They sent the full squad down, less than 12 hours after playing a top of the table clash against Saints then ended up winning the comp by a country mile. They were never invited back.

Bagpipes only sound good to the Scottish because they're always totally laggered. It would appear that beer goggles works for your ears as well (beer hearing aids or something.)

Bagpipes sound good but as Kendra says only in certain circumstances. I always imagine them outdoors as mist rolls over and the noise echoes round the mountains....

I really need a holiday.
