Rain all weekend,
The sun didn't come out until we were on the plane back.
Beer £6 a pint.
Poor game.
We lose.
What a bloody great weekend.

£6 a pint was that local beer or import?

Import. Carlsberg ect. I got 2 cans of lager in the supermarket at €0.80 each, and took them in the ground, instead of having to buy 2 tokens at €2.50 each to get 1 pint of beer in the ground.

Its not cheap over there, but its a one off, so I can handle it, plus its a holiday of sorts.

Hey I can echo that.
Saturday - up at 5am, drove 225 miles to our most southern fans house in Essex, then shared a car with him over to Gatwick, flew to Toulouse from nice sunshine in England to pouring rain in southern France!
Did catch the end of the Italy v France RU game which made us all smile as the pub emptied when the French lost, that was funny. Got the underground to the ground where there was hardly anybody around, even 20 mins before ko, we luckily saw some fellow Fax fans to guide us in.
Bought our tokens for cr%p Amstell beer in the clubhouse, then watched our team play like a bunch of amateurs, but still smiling, just.

I was lucky enough to go to Toulouse the last 2 years when it was red hot and so was fax but I still wish I could have made it this year cos despite the poor weather and awful performance our lot still had a good time.

Its not as good this time of year sadly.

bloody hell halifax....y pick this time of year to play Toulouse????? you know poor weather in Toulouse and no direct flight from up north!!! oh and having to pay for tokens for beer...RFL get them in suprleague!!!!!

sarcasm by the way.......

£6 a pint was for Magners. I always drink cider when away as apple juice counts towards your 5 a day. Helps to counteract kebabs and M'cD's

1664 was about £5.20.
This was in the Melting Pot.
In the ground a smallish lager was 1 token i.e £2.50.

All prices calculated at todays exchange rate.

depends on the year - sometimes it's brilliant weather as it was all through the week - it turned nasty from friday midday (ish)

btw 2 tokens = half a litre of beer

see you next year lads

who was the Fax lad doing a John Travolta in front of the brass band ?

Blue coat on? That'd be my mate rob

tell him [unot[/u to give up his day job

Could be worse, his twin brother was dancing around on a table last year

yeh,I recall a guy on a table - didn't realise insanity ran i the family ! - that was a good night,a really good end of season bash for TO13 & Fax fans last year
this year was flat in comparison unfortunately what with the result plus the miserable weather etc
good luck at Whitehaven - hope MC can lift the lads

I have that on DVD I was awsome. I will be back next time we are there to entertain you again on the table

should be x-rated !

ever thought about having a frontal lobotomy ?

The DVD was x-rated, though that was mainly down to me
