This morning on the way to Heathrow I couldn’t help overhearing a conversation going on in between 2 (what they thought they were) “proper Londoners” about the “invasion of Eastern Europe”. It went upon the lines of how these bloody Czech, Hungarian, Polish and Romanian came and took over London and that’s not right. Coincidentally, […]
Just occurred to me the other day — being the (arguably) lucky owner of 3 Romanian rugby jerseys — how much these things have changed since the last Rugby World Cup (that would be RWC 2007 for those of you who don’t remember these things:D): I have bought the first such jersey during RWC 2007 […]
Not only did I have the dilemma already of cheering for both Romania and England, now I ended up with cheering for France as well following the sweepstakes draw for RWC 2011 we did in Cognitive Match 🙂

These are grainy and not so clear and long overdue … still though, great party! 😉 and some more:
This chocolate badge (yes, it IS made of chocolate!) was given to me by my mum who still teaches at Liceul “Ovidius” in Constanta where I studied. It’s shaped like a CD but just … tastier 😉
For those of you who still think Romanian rugby is non-existent, here’s the proof that’s not the case: this is the first rugby-only Romanian site that I know of: www.rugby.ro — it has live scores, news about the players (unfortunately most of the national squad as it turns out plays abroad!) and tons of other […]
