Pace on Earth

This Is How I Live

During my regularly scheduled evening surf sessions I came across this rugby story on one of my favourite sports blogs. If you don't want to take the time to read it that's cool; it's just a classic fish out of water tale that I can really relate to. I often feel alienated by the guys I play rugby with; you should have seen the looks they gave me when I tried to start a discussion regarding the best place to go to Midnight Mass on Christmas Eve - I know we were at a strip joint...but still.

So speaking of rugby stories; one of the club's young guns is currently on an exchange in Edinburgh playing for Stewart's Melville RFC and I spoke to him today. He told me that things were going well, he is having a great time and playing good rugby. He also told me he scored for the first time last weekend which he said would be really funny to me if I knew who they were playing. I hesitate to call Jebb a prodigy because of the risk/reward equation is still being calculated but there is no question I am envious of what he's up to this winter. The outfit...not so much.

Pace out.
