A choir was singing "Guide me, oh thou great Jehovah" when we walked into Cardiff's Millennium Stadium for Wales vs. the Barbarians . I'm still working on understanding the rules of Rugby Union, but right now my primary question concerns Number 8. Each of the fifteen players in a rugby line up has a name. He can be a Full-back, Winger (there are two Wingers), Inside centre, Outside center, Fly-half, Scrum-half, Loosehead prop, Tighthead prop, Hooker, Second row, Openside flanker, Blindside flanker, or a Number 8. What happened when they got to Number 8? They just ran out of cool (intimidating) names?
2021 and I'm still trying to remember which box I packed my sense of adventure in. Weaving and baking and walking the dogs until I can find it.
