The Roseburn, near the ground. We've had many a good sing song in there watching Wales, not always the happiest of occasions though. However the atmosphere in there has always helped to wipe the tears away.

Rutland doesnt have any tele's anymore I'm afriad. Good places to go though - three sisters in town - busy but good laugh, Queens arms is good, golf tavern in bruntsfield is magic too. Plenty of places in the grassmarket as well - all the irish bars and beehive will be showing too.

For anyone without tickets, the best place in Edinburgh to catch the games, and indeed go clubbing after, is The Three Sisters in the old town. We go there every trip!

A good place to watch the Scotland v Wales match this weekend is at Embark Bar and Dining Room in Fountainbridge (0131 222 4898) as ex Scotland and British Lions star Tom Smith will be there to do a Q&A session after the match!

Also there are free pies at half time and a free pint of Guinness for everyone if Scotland win!

Ex-Scotland and British Lions rugby star Tom Smith will be at Embark bar and dining room in Fountainbridge this Saturday afternoon at 2pm to meet fans and hold a Q&A session.

Smith, who has 61 caps for Scotland and currently plays for Northampton will be paraded at the city centre bar just an hour before the Scotland v Wales match kicks off at Murrayfield.

As well as giving an insight into what it’s like to play for Scotland and the British Lions, he will also be giving his predictions for the Six Nations and World Cup, which is being held in France later this year.

Tom Smith will be the third ex-Scotland internationalist to be at Embark within the last week, following former Edinburgh rugby stars, Derrick Lee and Craig Joiner’s appearance before the Calcutta Cup match last Saturday.
