Suspiciously well, in fact.

Got out of my hotel shower this morning some Irish fans in flags and top hats making the bed an hoovering. Not sure when it becomes too much

This morning, Foil Arms and Hog have likened all the fans to schoolchildren in a brilliant sketch. Needless to say, the Irish are the best behaved in the class.
