Well done to the Wales rugby team for beating Australia yesterday 21-18, a much deserved win against one of the Big Three from the Southern Hemisphere (South Africa, the cheating All Blacks and the moaning Aussies!) for the first time in three years.
Tries from Shane Williams and Lee Bryne helped Wales produce an excellent first half perform ace.
In the second half the Aussies up there game, but through penalties and a drop-goal scored by Stephen Jones handed Wales a much needed breathing space in the match and ran out winners of a thrilling match.
With the British Lions touring South Africa in the Summer 2009, I would expect after this performace a few players in the Welsh team have booked there tickets for this forthcoming tour?

Moving up to the higher section of the quarry I found another twenty Fly Orchids, five Frog Orchids and a couple of Common Twayblades. Driving up the hill from the last site, I reached the next site within minut
