Everyone...Meet My Dad

[Jess]

He said he only signed up to embarrass me but even still, everyone, meet my dad.
He's steve_cringle, (original names we come up with in my family huh) the newest member of TWF.
He's the reason i love rugby so much and i've been watching him play since i was old enough to leave the hospital (i've spent many hours watching him train or play and we have photos of me in my little baby jump suits cheering him on from the sidelines)
He played 333 games for uni and although his body gave up on rugby he certainly hasn't. He's a keen uni, wallabies and force supporter and he is still waiting for that call asking him to play for australia.
He's my dad, i love him and you guys should do too. (the way a man loves rugby of course.. nothing suss )
So be nice... (did i mention he's 6ft 3 and built like a brick wall?)
Welcome aboard dad... please don't embarrass me... please?

Welcome aboard Steve, we heard you were pretty reluctant to sign up at first?

Go Force!

[Flat-top]

Welcome from the motherland Steve, feels like we know so much about you already

[Darren]

G'day Steve, welcome aboard!

Good job educating "little miss sunshine" and bringing her up proper

[Burgs]

Welcome along Steve, looking forward to plenty of embarrassing anecdotes of Jess, purely in a Rugby Club speech night manner of course

Good on ya Steve. Have you a brother called Chris?

[Jess]

he has a nephew called chris

but like i said in my survey thing post... his parents split up so he decided to go with his mum's sir name. No idea why?!? Chris Cringle would be an awesome name.

Hi Steve ,I was at Palmyra last night, working like a dog as good club men do, when I noticed a young lady sitting alone , obviously waiting for the Toshiba game to begin. She was unusually attractive and intense, and I wondered how long it would take before one of our colts would notice her.
An hour or so later she was still sitting alone, looking more intense and somehow familiar. It suddenly dawned on me. Is your name Jesse ? I asked .Startled , she answered yes.Good, I said you'll be able to put in a report on the game for TWF, as I've been too busy to see most of it.
My questions to you Steve , what possessed you to let her go to Palmyra, the home of the low lifes unescorted, and where the bloody hell is her report?

ahhhh.....but we have 2 Jess'es here...........

[Jess]

i wasn't at paly last night... what are the odds?!?! her name being jess too! spooky!

[fulvio sammut]

That's amazing.While I did not have a really close look at her, (as I said before, I was flat out) she had dark hair and looked very similar to Jess's photo in the gallery.What a coincidence. She must have thought I was psychic or mad or both. I mentioned the website too. I wonder why she didn't say something (yeah you're right, probably thought I was mad).

[Jess]

she was probably just being polite.
What did she say when you mentioned the site? just a few head nods and well placed "huh hu"'s?

[fulvio sammut]

That's about the size of it...
