    Six Nations

    Ireland got off to a bloody excellent start, and England got off to a disjointed win against Italy. Not convincing but a win is a win. In BOD I do trust.

    The Wild Beasts

    If you don't like men singing falsetto, this band will likely not be for you.

    Final Fantasy

    This is not going to be a poll for which is your favourite Final Fantasy (though I wouldn't mind hearing which one is, though I find that likely to be FFVII for the majority of you:p).
