Saturday, October 11th, 2003 – Day 235

Today is Sports Day. I checked out that the Ireland V Romania Rugby game would be on at 3.00pm local time and the Ireland V Switrzerland Football game would be on at 11.30pm local time.

Ireland beat Romania well in the rugby World Cup. See the match report here. I went to Molly Malones to watch it. There was very little atmosphere. I was the only person with an Irish Rugby Jersey. We often joke in Ireland about tourists coming into our pubs and sharing one drink amongst them for 3 hours. I am afraid I have become one of them. A crap pint of beer in Malones costs 8.80 SG (4.35 Euro). Any country that charges that doesn’t trust its citizens. I made ONE PINT last the full 80 minutes. Terrible.

I tried lots of Pubs from Circular Quay to Clarke Quay. They were showing the Germany V Iceland game, the England V Turkey game and the Sweden V Latvia game, but no luck on the Irish game. I was disappointed as I expected it would be an excellent game.
