Sulking!

I was going to buy myself a Welsh Rugby Shirt to celebrate the Grand Slam. However £65 for the official WRU shirt is taking the piss when I was expecting to pay about £30. I guess that I'm either out of touch with how much these things cost or the WRU's merchandising is being run by a certain Robin B'stard!

I'd say a combination of the two. I worked the Umbro stand at Euro 96 and I seem to remember the England shirts costing £40 then.

There really is no excuse for the prices. The fabric isn't exactly costly and they're (possibly) all made in a sweatshop somewhere anyway.

Oh dear, and it's *such* a long time until your birthday.
Lovin' the irony of the main sponsors name. :o)

Yah, time to look for the knock-offs.
