Rugby roads may lead you to a television screen this afternoon but why not watch the big Six Nations games from your local clubhouse and, at the same time, support your local rugby team?
There are some cracking games on across the region ... in fact Bridgend Ravens are due to play Neath in the Principality Premiership in half an hour, kick off 1130.
Elsewhere Newton Abbot's All Whites – without a league game today – have arranged to play Dublin touring side Clontarf at 1300. Enterprise. I love it.
I refuse to believe interest in egg-chasing can decrease when we spent the start of the week in South Wales passing rugby pitch after rugby pitch from Newport to Llanelli.
Every South Wales town or city we passed or visited was like a spur to promote rugby union even more... every rugby pitch along the way a reminder of the passion for the game in the valleys.
Every Welsh rugby fan we met reminded me of why I am so passionate about sports, every conversation a reminder of why I will do my utmost to link the passion for rugby across South West England and South Wales as often as I can.
As I walked and talked my enthusiasm to continue this wonderful tapestry, interweaving our passion for all sorts of sports - all deserving SWSN game time – began to increase.
Whether it's St Austell RFC v Wimborne RFC at Tregorrick in the RFU Intermediate Cup, Larkhall Athletic v Tunbridge Wells in the FA Vase at Plain Ham, Bridgend Ravens v Neath at Bridge Field or a local hockey or netball match ... go on, wrap up warm, get out there and cheer your boots off!
