How Good is that Jem <3 <3

That's really nice Mr M, thank you so much <3

That is lovely Jem. Someone has recognised your hard work in doing the Rugby thread.

Well deserved :-D <3

THANK YOU TO ALL WALES FANS AND FRIENDS<3

This is an email sent to me from the WRU (Wales Rugby Union) and by extension also to all of you who followed Wales' journey in the Rugby World Cup 2019 along with me on "Radio Jem"

It read ....


"Thank you for your support Jem! (obviously they used my real name)


Hello Jem,

To all those who dared to dream, whether you travelled to Japan, gathered at your local rugby club, pub, school or simply hunkered down around the coffee table and TV wearing those lucky slippers – on behalf of Warren Gatland and his team – we would like to sincerely thank you for your support!


The team received thousands of messages of support in Japan and were inspired and galvanised by each one. You have celebrated our players and coaches with a huge amount of pride and gratitude for their efforts and we have travelled together each step of the way and shared in an incredible journey.


Welsh men, women and children throughout the country and far beyond wore the famous red for Wales in their homes and in every communal space imaginable as our great nation united in one common goal.


Congratulations to our semi-final opponents South Africa, who lifted the Webb Ellis Cup as worthy winners of Japan 2019, and thank you once again to each and every Wales supporter around the globe for your dedication and belief.


You have proved - that Welsh Rugby really does have the best supporters in the world game and long may that continue!



Diolch yn fawr pawb."



THANK YOU EVERYONE <3

:-D :-D :-D :-D

WELL I HAVE BEEN IN A PARALLEL UNIVERSE!:-0 :-0 :-0
... I have been experiencing some strange phenomena this aft! :-S


I've been to the Stadium of my Rugby Club to watch the game with family members and to watch my 6 year old Great Nephew play rugby on the pitch at half time!

But the last half of the game was watching my nephew winding up the crowds behind chanting for the opposition while wearing a Springboks shirt!

I have to say they did all love it. He had all the kids going,chanting back at him, and everyone was in hysterics. But his sister and his wife .... not so much ;-) :-D :-D :-D

I'm glad you manage to listen to most of the game Linda, Sorry that it wasn't the result that you hoped for though :-) <3


Thanks Emms :-D :-D <3

Brilliant game watched it and thoroughly enjoyed it.

England played well and kept at it, no shame there.

I was blown away by the strength of South Africa players.

To Jem and gang well done as always <3 <3

Well that was a shame, never mind, runners up is still good. I managed to listen to in on BBC sounds app, apart from the last ten minutes when I list it on the underground
