I love Leinster and I couldn't be happier that Jordie Barrett has signed with them on a short term deal.
Just got home, and I'm sure there's some sort of context I'm not realising?

I need to catch up, so I can become partially invested, before watching Scotland actually lose the game.

Wales vs Scotland Women's game has been postponed as one of the Scottish women tested positive for covid-19 and 7 others are in self isolation.

I have tickets to the men's game and thought that was cancelled but apparently not.

UK government advice is not to cancel sporting events, likely insurance wont pay out until that advice changes.

Kind of annoying because it's so last minute and the experts are all sure it doesn't make a big difference in the long run, but like I said before really they should have cancelled it for the look of the thing.

Luckily Premiere Inn has said that I can rebook a my hotel room at another date and they'll move the booking for me, so I won't lose any money as long as I go stay in a Premiere Inn again at some point in the year and I book it soon.
