Gwlad, Gwlad, Pleidiol Wyf I'm Gwlad!

Was watching a line up for a Wales Rugby match recently and saw this face:-
Woof!  Suddenly I'm all daffodils and leeks (and about time too [livejournal.com profile] brainlessangel is probably thinking.)  He's probably straight as they come, but it looks like I shall be singing Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau with fervor in future...

Meanwhile, I have discovered Ice Hockey (yes, I know it's been around ages, but I bumped into this large building marked "Trent FM Arena" one day...) and went to see the Nottingham Panthers (Go Panthers!!!) win 6-3 over the Newcastle Vipers.  I think I can get into this crowd mentality thing...

That's Adam Jones, the Welsh loosehead prop. He's one half of the Ospreys' "Hair Bears", the other being Duncan Jones (no relation, of course):



I look forward to your dribbling threesome fantasies.

Actually, that's a lie. ;-)

I wonder if they would be called "The Hair Bears" if people knew the -ah- alternative meaning of "Bear"...!!!

I think it has been mentioned occasionally...

All I have to say is "Vat of chocolate mousse."

He looks not unlike a young Joe Cocker.

That is some serious Curse of the Celts hair going on!

(There are few things in the world I covet more than a Welsh rugby jersey. Now I find I'm coveting Adam Jones' Welsh rugby jersey. Or envying.)

He's probably straight as they come

But he looks adorably confused!

He always looks confused. He's a prop.

The picture does kinda make me wonder what the Welsh for "I just shat myself" is though.
