Even though we live in Brunei and rugby is not a huge sport here, there are plenty of people with an interest in the Rugby World Cup taking place at the moment. The McCarthy household is firmly in the Irish camp as most of you will already know. However, that didn't stop Ayden's teacher from tagging a little gift onto his school bag today just to set the tone for the upcoming game (you would never guess where she is from!). Ireland start their campaign on Sunday against the States and then have Australia on the 17th which will be a big occasion in the McCarthy household.
As Brunei has a large contingent of Aussie's and Kiwi's, expectations are high for one of those countries to do something special. The English are always in there with a chance and the local support is confident as always as are the French, but we're hoping that Ireland will get a good run and give us a few good days and maybe even a few surprises (quietly confident as they say in Cork !)
