France announced today that it plans to permanently ban fireworks at Euro Disney, following last night's fireworks display that caused soldiers at a nearby French army garrison to surrender.

And the word here is that we didn't play great rugby... Be cautious when playing Italy or you'll end up winning the "Wooden Spoon"

I know nothing about rugby. What is the "Wooden Spoon", it obviously can't be good.

In the VI Nations tournament where England, France, Ireland, Scotland, Wales and Italy play (was V before Italy joined), if you lose all your games you earn the honorific grand prize of the "La cuillere de bois" which I translated in "Wooden Spoon" (don't know if that exists in english).

If you win it all (England and Ireland still have a shot at it), you earn a "Grand Slam"
