France first - new managers dream of landing the six nations could be over after the first wkd.

That weekend in Edinburgh looks appealing.

Get away from the Paddys weekend mayhem that will be kicking off at home!

Best 6 nations fixture list we have had in years. two monster sessions to be had for the France an England game anyway with those kick off times.

Heading for that weekend. Six of us decided that, when Scotland were over here. Was in Edinburgh with same lads for Scotland V New Zealand a few years back and it was a savage weekend.

Does anyway know when you can book flights for this. Not available yet on Ryanair, while Aerlingus have a 330 day advance booking policy. I'm sure they will have it well flagged with dear flights, might fly into Glasgow and train it down.

Another option for getting to the Scotland game is to fly to Newcastle ( cheap flight) , stay in hotel in Newcastle for fcuk all compared to Edinburugh prices, get the train up to Edinburugh , go to game , few pints after and get the 7:00pm train back to the Toon.

Have done this trip twice and the crack on the train on the way back to newcastle is savage!!

And alot more tarts runnin round Newcy on a Sat nite as well!!
Could be a good call.
Flights for that weekend should be out around July/August
