    A grand day of racing. These cars seem to run hot and cold between laps. Mixture problems maybe?

    I would like to watch the Autumn Cup Final Rugby Union game between England and France today at 2 p.m. Live from Twickenham. It is supposed to be on Amazon, of all places, but I am darned if I can find anything about it on their website! Can any member help me on this, maybe another live stream site? Many thanks!

    Hi Swanny, I have used this site many times for football streams - usually good quality, you just have to delete any pop-ups that might come. The links usually start to appear about 30 minutes before the start of the match

    Thanks, Smokey. Actually I've had Prime Video for a long time, but I must be going blind!

    Grüß Gott, Oddy!
    Thank you very much for the tip. I will check on this one as well. Maybe my eyesight will improve so I can see it on Amazon, as Smokey said above. Ah, I wonder if Amazon are offering it in Deutschland, that's a thought? Servus!

    Oddy/Smokey: Unfortunately Amazon Prime don't seem to offer RU in Germany, at least I don't think so. Managed to get a pretty good viewing on Oddy's live stream site, and found that the French section was best as not so much of the revolving circle thing.

    As for the game, a real thriller and England were IMHO very lucky to pull this off 22-19 in sudden-death extra time. England were outplayed and outsmarted by this young French 15 throughout most of the game. I'm no RU expert (in fact I'm not an expert in any sport :emoticon-0100-smile) but that's how I saw the game. Must say England did stick to their guns and battled on when looking beaten. A very entertaining game of Rugby.

    Thank you for the help and suggestions, very much appreciated. <ok>

    Yes. Stick, I looked everywhere on Amazon site. I think the only answer is that it's not available in mainland Europe?

    And the bullshit continues. Floyd Mayweather is to stage an exhibition bout with YouTube celebrity Logan Paul on February 21. The gouging starts early. For a limited time it'll be $24.99. After a million buys it'll jump to $39.99 and onto $59.99 after December 31. Top price will be $69.99 on fight night.

    And there's still chatter about Manny Pacquiao fighting Conor McGregor after the the elections are held in the Phillippines on May 6.

    The sad thing is that all these 'celebrity' fights that are happening will probably soon become more and more common place and won't stop until somebody gets seriously hurt

    So true Smokey... The whole celebrity culture is wrong in my mind with so many -listers taking the headlines from proper Sports men & women who deserve so much credit for what they do... Ah, well, bring on Celebrity Stars do Greko Wrestling, or Sumo like...haha

    Saying that they did do the Skiing long jump one recently with a couple of the stars breaking their legs or hurting themselves in the process...!!!

    Scary stuff. What about those fools standing on the wrong side of a fast corner? Idiots. And then there are the people who wander all over the course like lost sheep. There must be some terrible accidents on these runs, imagine being hit by someone doing 100k plus on skis.

    The apparent lack of rules does seem weird Cyc. I remember a few years ago a fairly prominent German politician collided with a woman on a ski slope. He was doing about 65kmh and she ended up dying of her injuries.

    Ok, we can all have an off day, that happens in sport but the Indian cricket team have hit a proper WTF moment in the 1st Test v the Aussies this morning being bowled out for just 36...!!!<yikes><yikes> Made all the more remarkable that they skittled the home side for 191 in their 1st innings to take a 53 run lead into this innings...!!

    It's the Indians lowest ever Test total in a single innings, joint 5th of all time... WOW...
